Carys Egan-Wyer Our research My research critically explores how people consume endurance experiences—such as triathlon, obstacle adventure racing, and ultra-distance running—and what those consumption patterns can tell us about contemporary society. The findings question the idea that endurance experiences are an escape from the demands of everyday life. Instead, it shows that social (especially

Tomas Deierborg Our research Physical activity is linked with a reduced risk of somatic disorders. Interestingly, exercise also affects the inflammatory status in the body. We study how physical activity affects the molecular processes involved in different brain disorders. Our exercise research ranges from experimental animal studies to epidemiological studies on the Swedish population. By modeli

Tina Mattsson Our research This research concerns how elements of sports and physical activities, as part of institutional addiction treatment, support normative ideas about gender, age, and body. Using theoretical concepts such as functionality, body normativity, and the normative, I explore how institutional staff reason about physical activities in relation to different client groups.

Tissue Regeneration and Exercise training – A project in the Lung Biology research group Our research Exercise training has for many years been a cornerstone in the treatment of COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease) and studies have shown improved life quality and prolonged survival. However, little is known about what actually occurs on a cell- and molecular level. Our hypothesis is that a

Our research Our research focuses on how environmental factors, urban planning and infrastructures affect our health on a populational level. We want to know how different factors in our surroundings might improve or worsen our health. With health, we consider both physical and psychological aspects. Our research sheds light on how to increase active commuting in society. Some of our studies focus

Thus, by exploring how urban public spaces and spaces of mobility can be transformed and redeveloped for people and not for cars, peoples’ physical activities can increase by moving through urban spaces as pedestrians or cyclists.
