Come join the team! We want to make sure Aussie swimmers are training in the smartest way possible - to do that we need a detailed profile of their unique physiology. That’s what this project is all about.
Excited to share this PhD opportunity in elite swimming as a collaboration between @Deakin Centre for Sport Research and @VicInstSport. @LachMitchell @RodSiegel
