António Prieto Veloso
António Veloso is a Full Professor of Biomechanics at the Faculty of Human Kinetics, University of Lisbon, and currently serves as President of the Scientific Council at FMH. He directs the Biomechanics and Functional Morphology Laboratory, overseeing 14 PhD staff members and 15 PhD students. António Veloso has led 14 major projects funded both nationally and by the European Union (EU) and has published over 250 peer-reviewed articles. He also served as President of the Portuguese Society of Biomechanics and was a council member of the International Society of Biomechanics from 2011 to 2017.The research lines advanced under his coordination focus on the development of in vivo and in silico methodologies for studying the neuromusculoskeletal system, investigating biomechanical factors related to sports performance, injury prevention, and return to practice, as well as developing prognostic biomechanical factors for mobility changes, including assessment methodologies and intervention studies.

Neuromuscular Biomechanics
Letter R
Research Overview
The focus of the Neuromuscular Biomechanics is to investigate the response of the musculoskeletal system to mechanical stimulation and to ascertain the role of this response to optimized human performance, as well as on the understanding and prevention of pathological conditions related to mechanical loading.

João Pedro Reis Magalhães
João Magalhães' current research interests focus on the graded and dose-response relationships between sedentary behavior and physical activity, with obesity, metabolic and other chronic diseases across the life span, and related mechanistic and prevention models, with a special focus on exercise interventions on people with type-2 diabetes.
Further interests are on the assessment of Energy Expenditure and Physical Activity Using reference methods (doubly labeled water) and objective methods (proportional actigraphy, and combined sensors using heart rate and motion sensors).

Luís Fernando Cordeiro Bettencourt Sardinha
Luís B. Sardinha is a Full Professor of Exercise Prescription at the Faculty of Human Kinetics, University of Lisbon. He has published over 400 peer-reviewed articles and has been an investigator and PI in several national and international multicentric research projects. He has an H-index = 77 (Source: Web of Science - all databases). The focus of his research has been the development of methods and models of human body composition and studying graded and dose-response relationships between sedentary behavior, physical activity, and fitness with physiological attributes across the life span and related mechanisms with randomized clinical trials, especially within the scope of Obesity, Cardiovascular Diseases, Type 2 Diabetes, and more recently on Oncological Exercise. He is also involved in forward-translation research comprising web-based outreach programs to influence children and adults, body composition, fitness, and health using passive digital phenotyping.
