About

Mark Hamer is a Professor of Sport & Exercise Medicine at University College London, UK. His research focuses on the intersections of physical activity, cognitive function, and overall health, as evidenced by his recent publications examining topics such as the associations between daily activity levels and cognitive outcomes in midlife adults. Additionally, he explores the role of movement in health interventions for various populations, including those diagnosed with cancer and middle-aged women. His work aims to enhance understanding of the benefits of physical activity across different age groups and health conditions.
