The Department of Human Movement Science presented itself with a booth at the SchlauRaum science festival in Münster's city center. On the topic of “Bewegung, die Wissen schafft”, the team of doctoral students, project seminar students, and research assistants offered insights into the diverse research carried out by the work group. From psychomotor skills and kinematic movement analysis to sport in old age, everything was on offer for the mixed audience.

PhD students Meike Gerlach and Tabea Christ presented their current research at the 30th Annual Congress of the European College of Sport Science in Rimini, Italy. The congress offered great opportunities for exchange and networking with the specialist audience and international colleagues from related fields of research. The valuable feedback on their poster presentations provided new impulses for their doctoral theses.
 

Together with Michel Audiffren (Poitiers), Ivan Bautmans (Brussels) and Yael Netz (Wingate) we planned the new Erasmus Mundus Joint Masters from 9-11.7.25. The hosts were Ellen Bentlage, Jil Bartholmy (Leiden) and Michael Brach. In the EMJM Master's programme you study at more than one university, generous scholarships are possible. Our preparations are supported by the International Office.
 

On June 17, Assoc. Prof. Dr. Veysel Alcan from Tarsus University (Engineering and Health Research Group) visited the Department of Movement Science as a guest scholar. During his visit, he presented his current research projects and engaged in an inspiring exchange with our team.
In turn, the department introduced its own research foci and ongoing projects. The discussions revealed significant thematic overlaps and promising opportunities for future collaboration.
We look forward to continuing our dialogue and initiating joint research activities in the near future.
