Browse through the 2022–23 Research Report for an overview of the innovative and impactful research led by the Faculty of Kinesiology and Physical Education over the past year.
From investigating why some athletes are injury prone to exploring how activity “snacks” following meals may help maintain muscle mass, KPE researchers have been making important contributions to one of the key tenets of the Faculty’s Academic Plan: elevating health and well-being.
They studied the experiences of girls who play on mixed-gender sports teams and explored the experiences of students and coaches with Special Olympics Unified Sports, contributing to another important tenet of the Academic Plan: igniting transformative inclusivity.
The Faculty’s new and renovated research spaces helped foster innovation, discovery and achievement while also activating partnerships and collaborations – two more tenets of the Academic Plan.
Collectively, KPE faculty published 157 peer-reviewed articles, three books and five book chapters in 2022-23. They held over $2 million in research funding across 38 research grants and contracts, further propelling the Faculty's research progress.
