Marco Viceconti)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Research topics<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragrafostrong\">The PhD Programme\u2019s distinctive topic is the relationship between sport, health and well-being in its unitary complexity. Such relationship defines a research field with both a strongly cohesive content and an intrinsic openness to multi-and inter-disciplinary approaches. This general theme is articulated in the following three areas:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Physical activity, nutrition and drugs for well-being promotion and health protection<\/strong>: determinants and benefits of a healthy lifestyle; exercise for special populations; research and development of drugs for health protection; biomarkers\u2019 analysis for monitoring the well-being status; metabolism and nutrition.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Sport performance<\/strong>: multi- and inter-disciplinary investigation of the factors determining human performance in sport and other activities that push humans to the limits of their physical and mental capacity; analysis, development and learning of sports techniques; monitoring and optimization of the training process; preparation for sports competitions.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Sport as a means to education and sustainable development<\/strong>: analysis of the values conveyed by sport to promote social inclusion, environmental sustainability, and global citizenship; teaching and learning of culture in childhood, in relation to movement and the human body; good practices for starting and practicing grassroot sports; education to the factors of individual and social well-being in the current reality; role of the context in promoting human development.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"Paragrafostrong\">The various research topics will be developed by stressing those \u201csoft-skills\u201d components that allow to locate rigorous disciplinary investigations exactly into the horizon where, today, extremely useful answers for the promotion of sport, health, and well-being can emerge.<\/p>\n<p>Job opportunities and potential areas of employmentJob opportunities are primarily related to both the University&#8217;s research and\/or public and private institutions (national and international) related to exercise and sport sciences, pharmaceutical sciences, nutrition sciences, education and pedagogical sciences. Other potential areas of employment may be consultancy, planning and partnerships, related to research activities mentioned above, in the fields of: pharmaceutical and nutritional sciences; sport practice for prevention, reeducation, and training; planning and management of sport and physical activity; high-level competitive sport (coach, athletic trainer, sport scientist, scout, and analyst); formal and informal education (teaching and learning, Continuing Professional Development training).<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Please find more details here:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.unibo.it\/en\/teaching\/phd\/2023-2024\/sport-health-and-well-being\">PhD details &#8211; Sport, Health and Well-being \u2014 University of Bologna (unibo.it)<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Call for Applications:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.unibo.it\/en\/teaching\/phd\/2023-2024\/attachments\/39-pnrr-call-for-applications\/@@download\/file\/39th%20cycle_callforapplications_ENG.pdf\">https:\/\/www.unibo.it\/en\/teaching\/phd\/2023-2024\/attachments\/39-pnrr-call-for-applications\/@@download\/file\/39th%20cycle_callforapplications_ENG.pdf<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>PhD Programme Table:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.unibo.it\/en\/teaching\/phd\/2023-2024\/attachments\/39-pnrr-phd-programme-table-sport-health-and-well-being\/@@download\/file\/39_PNRR_PhD%20Programme%20Table_SportHealthWellbeing.pdf\">https:\/\/www.unibo.it\/en\/teaching\/phd\/2023-2024\/attachments\/39-pnrr-phd-programme-table-sport-health-and-well-being\/@@download\/file\/39_PNRR_PhD%20Programme%20Table_SportHealthWellbeing.pdf<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Application deadline:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Jun 20, 2023 at 11:59 PM<\/p>\n<p><strong><span class=\"label\">Doctoral programme start date:<\/span>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Nov 01, 2023<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Contacts:<\/strong><\/p>\n<h4><a href=\"https:\/\/www.unibo.it\/sitoweb\/carmela.fimognari\">CARMELA FIMOGNARI<\/a><\/h4>\n<p>Dipartimento di Scienze per la Qualit\u00e0 della Vita &#8211; QUVI<\/p>\n<div class=\"address\">\n<h5>Address:\u00a0<a title=\"Open in a new window\" href=\"http:\/\/search.unibo.it\/UniboWeb\/UniboMappe\/Default.aspx?kml=%2fUniboWeb%2fStruct.kml%3fStrID%3d977&amp;lang=en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Corso D&#8217;Augusto 237\u00a0<\/a>Rimini (RN)<\/h5>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"email\">\n<h5>E-mail:\u00a0<a href=\"&#x6d;&#97;i&#x6c;&#x74;&#111;:&#x63;&#x61;&#114;m&#x65;&#108;a&#x2e;&#x66;&#105;m&#x6f;&#x67;&#110;a&#x72;&#105;&#64;&#x75;&#x6e;&#105;b&#x6f;&#x2e;&#105;t\">&#99;&#x61;&#114;&#x6d;e&#108;&#x61;&#46;&#x66;i&#x6d;o&#103;&#x6e;&#97;&#x72;i&#x40;&#x75;&#110;&#x69;b&#x6f;&#46;&#105;&#x74;<\/a><\/h5>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"phone\">\n<h5>Telephone: +39 0541 434 658<\/h5>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>PhD in Sport, Health and Well-being The Biomechanics group at the University of Bologna employs four open fully-funded PhD positions in biomechanics. \u00a0 All the positions are within the PhD program in Health and Technology, a highly interdisciplinary program which includes supervisors from the different domains. \u00a0The call includes 14 positions including four projects in &hellip; <a href=\"http:\/\/bio-mechanik.org\/wordpress\/en\/phd-in-sport-health-and-well-being\/\">Weiterlesen <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":10,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"categories":[138],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-5195","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-job-annoncen-en","wp-image-borders"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/bio-mechanik.org\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5195"}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/bio-mechanik.org\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/bio-mechanik.org\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/bio-mechanik.org\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/10"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/bio-mechanik.org\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=5195"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"http:\/\/bio-mechanik.org\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5195\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":5198,"href":"http:\/\/bio-mechanik.org\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5195\/revisions\/5198"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/bio-mechanik.org\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5195"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/bio-mechanik.org\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=5195"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/bio-mechanik.org\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=5195"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
