Applied Research Centre

The experts from Sports Science and Sports Medicine (SSSM) at the AIS have a long tradition of achieving innovative and practical solutions to complex sport problems.

The AIS Applied Research Centre was formed in 2005 to further enhance the ability of the AIS and SSSM departments to continue to help athletes and coaches from across the Australian sporting system achieve their goals. 

It acts as a centralised communication hub that connects researchers and scientists to coaches and athletes.

This unique relationship allows partnerships to be forged with key stakeholders who are committed to improving the performance of AIS athletes.

Collaborations

The Applied Research Centre welcomes external collaborators who have an interest in sports science research.  Current partners include:

  • Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation (CSIRO)
  • National Information and Communication Technology Australia (NICTA)
  • CRC for Advanced Composites
  • Over 15 of Australia’s Universities
