Sports Medicine Australia is delighted to announce that Dr Esther van Sluijs is joining us at the 2022 SMA Conference as a Keynote Speaker.

Dr van Sluijs leads a program on Behavioural Epidemiology and Interventions in Young People at the MRC Epidemiology Unit, University of Cambridge. Her research uses observational evidence to further enhance the understanding of where, when, and how physical activity in young people may be promoted, and evaluates the impact of interventions to promote physical activity.

She has conducted evaluations of school- and family-based physical activity promotion interventions and leads the International Children’s Accelerometry Database (ICAD). Esther holds a PhD in Public Health and Epidemiology from the Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam, is a Senior Associate Editor of the Journal of Physical Activity and Health, and is an expert advisor on children’s physical activity promotion nationally and internationally.

We look forward to meeting Dr van Sluijs in Gold Coast from 16-19 November for the in-person Conference this year.
