WELCOME On behalf of the Institute for Sport & Physical Activity Research, welcome to the fifth Annual ISPAR Conference with the theme of ‘Getting back on track’. Our virtual conference this year will be presented across three days, showcasing the impactful research our staff and postgraduate students are engaged in within each of our research centres. Day one will be hosted by the Centre for Health, Wellbeing and Behaviour Change, with a focus on ‘Physical activity and behaviour change for the benefit of long-term conditions and psychological wellbeing’. Our experts in moving medicine will highlight the role of physical activity in cancer, arthritis, cardiac rehabilitation, cardiometabolic health, diabetes management, glycaemic control, weight management, and in supporting those who have been bereaved or who are living with mental health concerns, covering a range of populations and considerations since COVID-19.
