About Us
Hi, welcome to our lab at Peking University!
Our research focuses on the promotion of physical activity with the
aim of improving health and well-being across the life span. Specifically,
we are interested in 1) examining the relationship between physical activity
and positive psychological well-being, 2)developing theory- and evidence-based
physical activity interventions for various populations, 3) investigating the effect of
physical activity on cognitive functions and academic performance in children,
and 4) incorporating wearable technology and data science in promoting physical
activity. Our research is often interdisciplinary in nature
with on-going collaborations with faculty members in Psychology and Medicine.
You could find out more

Our lab has a group
of enthusiastic young scientists with diverse backgrounds.
