🌟 Meet Our Team 🌟

At Research VIP, we’re more than just colleagues, we’re family. ❤️ We believe that strong connections drive our best work, so we foster a supportive, inclusive environment where everyone’s ideas and contributions are valued.

Beyond work, we strengthen our connections through shared activities like paddleboarding, pub quizzes, and enjoying drinks together, creating lasting memories as a team.

As Henry Ford said, “Coming together is a beginning, staying together is progress, and working together is success.” This quote reflects our philosophy: by supporting one another and working toward shared goals, we achieve greatness.

👥 From left to right: Max, Robyn, Krutika, Sam, Jessamie, Nell, Lucy, and Lara.

I love sports and exercise. I have a job in sports and exercise. I encourage all children (including my own) to love sports and exercise.

But, what do you do if your parents actively discouraged you from taking part in sports and exercise?! Well, you'll never have guessed that that's exactly what happened to me growing up!

Join me for this engaging webinar where I'll be sharing evidence that shows that everyone should 'get moving', and especially our children. I'll also share useful tips on how to engage with children, and share a few stories of my own too!

'Walk in INSPIRED' - I certainly was when invited to visit the Sports Science and Sports Medicine unit of the Singapore Sports Institute (SSI).

Goh Wan Xiu and her team/colleagues are doing some wonderful work preparing Singapore's elite athletes to deliver success on the world stage.

We discussed challenges of high performance sport in Singapore - the culture of high academic, business and financial success is ingrained in the Singaporean culture. Taking that same focus and drive into sport, exercise and health is one of SSI's and Wan Xiu's passions. They will get there!

They have invited me to deliver presentations to their players, coaches and support staff on my next visit. I can't wait!

'Walk out TRANSFORMED' - I certainly was!

Hello from Singapore!

I caught up with friends and colleagues from Nanyang Technological University (NTU) - one of the top universities in the world.

Prof Steve Burns is an old mate from Loughborough Uni.

Prof Swarup Mukerjee is a new friend: we are both Bengali (him from West Bengal and me from Bangladesh/East Bengal), very interested in wellness and wellbeing, and love sport and exercise!

We are working on several collaborative projects and, on this trip, planned many others including a research trip and immersion visit for his students to Massey University.

Swarup is also a sports doc and he diagnosed my dodgy knees and gave me some much-needed advice. Hopefully that will help when we catch up on the golf course....in Singapore and New Zealand!

Ni hao! I've been invited to present at the 5th International Conference of Food Science and Human Wellness in Wuhan.

China is one of the world's largest producers of beetroot but, based on some of our work, the Chinese folk don't necessarily like the taste!

My talk on beetroot juice intake for health and performance went down well and hopefully I managed to convince a few people to give it a go!

You've heard of the apple a day phrase, what about, "a cup of beetroot juice a day, keeps the cardiologist at bay"!
