Guy Faulkner, PhD
Professor, School of Kinesiology, Faculty of Education
CIHR-PHAC Chair in Applied Public Health

After completing an undergraduate education in Physical Education at Sydney University, Australia, I went backpacking and spent ten years in England studying and working in mental health services and then Higher Education. After completing a PhD in exercise psychology in 2001 at Loughborough University, I worked for three years as Director of the Exercise and Sport Psychology Unit at the University of Exeter in England. Eager to see more of the Commonwealth, I moved to Canada in August 2003 and the Faculty of Kinesiology and Physical Education at the University of Toronto.  I am currently a Professor in the School of Kinesiology at the University of British Columbia (from July 2015) and also a Canadian Institutes of Health Research-Public Health Agency of Canada (CIHR-PHAC) Chair in Applied Public Health.

I am currently an investigator with the Ontario Tobacco Research Unit (OTRU); and a Research Affiliate of the Alberta Centre for Active Living.  I serve on the ParticipACTION research committee and am a member of the Research Work Group for the annual Report Card on Physical Activity for Children and Youth.  I am also the founding editor of the Elsevier journal 'Mental Health and Physical Activity'.

Broadly, my research has focused on two inter-related themes: the development and evaluation of physical activity interventions; and physical activity and mental health. If you would like to learn more about my research, please contact me at guy.faulkner@ubc.ca  or follow me at @guyfaulkner.

Carly Priebe, PhD
Postdoctoral Research Fellow

After graduating at the top of my undergraduate class and being awarded the Dean’s Medal in 2007, I went on to pursue a Master of Science in the area of Kinesiology at the University of Saskatchewan (Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada; SSRHC funded).  My thesis topic involved investigating the influence of groups and descriptive norms (i.e., our perceptions of others’ behaviour) on physical activity and healthy eating in both student and office worker populations and was awarded the University of Saskatchewan Thesis Award in the Life Sciences category.  In 2009, I was awarded a SSHRC Vanier Graduate Scholarship which allowed me to continue this research program as well as investigate the effects of norms in relation to new behaviours (e.g., sedentary behaviour in office settings).  Throughout my time as an undergraduate and graduate student at the University of Saskatchewan, in addition to being involved in research, I also competed and coached internationally in the sport of triathlon (e.g., coached Canada’s national paratriathlon team).  In addition, I enjoyed merging my passion for research with my love of coaching/assisting others in reaching their goals as a sessional instructor in the College of Kinesiology.

I am currently starting my postdoc training (commencing January 2016) in the School of Kinesiology, University of British Columbia (UBC) under the leadership of Dr. Guy Faulkner. I am involved in research funded by the Canadian Institutes of Health Research (CIHR) and the Public Health Agency of Canada (PHAC).  In addition to being involved in other projects, my primary role is to coordinate an evaluation of a national collaboration between UBC, Canadian Cancer Society and Running Room in delivering a physical activity smoking cessation intervention – Run to Quit.  I am very excited about my work with this and other related projects as my goal is to promote physical activity and healthy lifestyles throughout Canada, with groups and social influence being one way to do this. I can be contacted at carly.priebe@ubc.ca

Madelaine Gierc, PhD
Postdoctoral Research Fellow

I am a postdoctoral researcher in the School of Kinesiology at the University of British Columbia, working under the leadership of Dr. Guy Faulkner. My primary project is funded by the Canadian Society of Exercise Physiology (CSEP), and involves developing a training program on the use of physical activity to manage the symptoms of clinical depression. I am also assisting on a project examining the synergistic effects of physical activity and repetitive transcranial magnet stimulation (rTMS) for treatment-resistant clinical depression.

I started my undergraduate degree with an aversion to physical activity, and the desire to become a pharmacist. Four years later, I graduated from the University of Alberta with an Arts degree and growing interest in exercise and health. My graduate training includes a MPH (Population & Public Health, Memorial University of Newfoundland) and a PhD (Kinesiology, University of Saskatchewan), and I am concurrently completing doctoral-level training in clinical psychology (Queen’s University at Kingston). My clinical training has emphasized health psychology, particularly chronic pain conditions. My research interests lie in the intersection between public health, physical activity promotion, and psychology. For example: How can we use cognitive-behavioural strategies to promote physical activity adherence? What are the barriers to physical activity in individuals with chronic health conditions? If you would like to learn more about my research interests, please contact me at m.gierc@ubc.ca.

Matthew Fagan
Postdoctoral Research Fellow
I received my B.A. with a specialization in Kinesiology from the University of Western Ontario. I then went on to pursue a M.A. in Kinesiology at the University of Western Ontario. My thesis work involved the acute cognitive effects of nicotine administration and moderate intensity exercise in smokers. I obtained my PhD under the guidance of Dr. Guy Faulkner. My research interests include the potential role of acute exercise in an addiction recovery setting, as well as how behaviour change theoretical frameworks (i.e., the Health Action Process Approach) may assist both clinical and non-clinical populations with engaging in physical activity. If you would like to know more about my research, please email me at matthew.fagan@alumni.ubc.ca.

Yiling Tang
PhD Student

I completed my Bachelor’s Degree in Rehabilitation Science as one of the top students at Chengdu Medical College.

Victoria Whiteford
PhD Student

I completed a Social Sciences Honours degree in 2015 achieving a 2:1 specializing in Psychology and Criminology at Glasgow Caledonian University. Following this, in 2016 I completed a Post Graduate Diploma in Psychology achieving a Merit and British Psychological Society accreditation. I conducted research investigating young people's attitudes towards peers with mental health problems.

Combining my passion for physical activity and mental health and wellbeing I decided to pursue a Masters in Physical Activity for Health at the University of Edinburgh where I graduated in 2020 with Distinction. For my dissertation I evaluated a real-world physical activity walking intervention (Step Count Challenge) during COVID-19 when Scotland was in lockdown and social distancing measures were in place. I specifically evaluated the impact that participation in the SCC had on mental wellbeing. I am currently a Ph.D. student under the guidance of Dr. Guy Faulkner at the University of British Columbia.

My research interests include investigating the impact of physical activity on mental health and wellbeing. I am particularly interested in real-world physical activity interventions such as Exercise Referral Schemes and exploring what is best practice in terms of designing exercise programs for people seeking help for mental health problems (e.g depression) to encourage them to become more physically active. I am also interested in the relationship between physical activity, outdoor space and mental health and wellbeing.  If you would like to know more about my research, please contact me at vwhitefo@student.ubc.ca.

Dasha Sosna
PhD Student

I completed my Bachelor of Science in Kinesiology at the University of Calgary with a focus on Mind Sciences. From there I moved onto a Master of Science in Kinesiology at San Francisco State University, where my research centered around the impact that coach behavior and language have on child and adolescent mental health.

Kelly Wunderlich
Research Coordinator

I first started in the Population Physical Activity Lab as a research assistant while I completed my Bachelor of Kinesiology. This led to completing a Master of Science, with a thesis on the individual and group-related predictors of attendance in Walk or Run to Quit – a 10-week program where participants are supported with smoking cessation curriculum from the Canadian Cancer Society and are guided through a learn to walk or run 5km program from the Running Room. I have also worked on StandUP UBC, which investigated the effectiveness of a low-cost standing desk in office settings, as well as several other projects in the Pop PA Lab. I enjoy the real-life impact of this research, such as what makes a program effective or ineffective for the target population.

My current portfolio includes being the project manager for the Canadian Campus Wellbeing Survey (an assessment tool to help colleges and universities collect the data they need to support student health and wellbeing), project coordinator and knowledge broker for COMPASS in BC (a longitudinal study that tracks high school students in order to improve their health behaviours), and continuing to support the evaluation of the Walk or Run to Quit program. If you would like to know more about my research or these projects please email me at kelly.wunderlich@ubc.ca.

In my spare time I enjoy playing and coaching ultimate frisbee, baking, and event planning for organizations that I volunteer with.

Julia Mckenna
Masters Student

I completed my undergraduate degree studying Kinesiology at Queen’s University, graduating with distinction. My experience as a varsity swimmer, paired with my studies in exercise science allowed me to channel this into a passion for physical activity promotion. In my final two years of undergraduate studies, I contributed to projects surrounding the knowledge translation of physical activity; specifically, interventions that disseminate and implement the recently released Canadian 24-Hour Movement Guidelines for Adults.

These experiences motivated me to continue a path in research as I work towards my Master of Science in Kinesiology under the supervision of Dr. Guy Faulkner at UBC. My research focuses on evaluating engagement in an at-home mHealth exercise intervention for healthcare workers. In my free time, I enjoy hiking, running, shooting film pictures, listening to music, and spending time with friends.

If you would like to learn more about my research interests, please contact me at julia.mckenna@ubc.ca.

Cassandra Kell-Cattrysse
Masters Student

I completed my B.A. in Kinesiology with a minor in Dance at Western University in 2019. Following my studies, I worked as an Exercise Professional, Certified Exercise Nutritionist, and CSEP- CPT for two years at an integrative health care clinic in London, ON. My childhood years as a competitive dancer, studies in Kinesiology, and work as a Health Care Practitioner has shaped my passion for exercise as a treatment for physical and mental health conditions.

I am now in working towards a Master of Arts in Kinesiology under the supervision of Dr. Guy Faulkner. My research interests include designing and implementing physical activity programs as a treatment for depression. I hope to address the gap between current literature and the lack of referral streams from Mental Health Practitioners to Exercise Professionals, as well as educational streams that are necessary for Exercise Professionals to be qualified in this scope of practice. I am also interested in specific domains of physical activity/ exercise and mindfulness that contribute most to improved mental health.

If you would like to learn more about my research interests, please contact me at ckellcat@student.ubc.ca.

Jack Zhan
Masters Student

I recently completed my Bachelor of Kinesiology at the University of Toronto with high distinction. My studies in kinesiology and my experiences as a varsity baseball player contributed to my understanding of the importance of physical activity to the many aspects of people’s lives. I also developed an interest in public health and health promotion from previous experiences volunteering for the Canadian Cancer Society and working for the Middlesex-London Health Unit on the Tobacco Prevention Team. These experiences and interests have motivated me to study at the Population Physical Activity Lab, where I can further learn and research the intersection between kinesiology and population health.

I am currently working towards a Master of Science under the supervision of Dr. Guy Faulkner. The electronic revolution has changed many of our movement behaviours, such as how we live, work, learn, and play. I am interested in examining how digital population-level physical activity interventions could be optimally designed and disseminated for health promotion and disease prevention. If you would like to learn more about my research, please contact me at jzhan17@student.ubc.ca.

The Canadian Campus Wellbeing Survey (www.ccws-becc.ca) is a Canadian assessment tool to help colleges and universities collect the data they need to support student health and wellbeing. The vision of the CCWS is to establish a Canadian platform for monitoring student and employee wellbeing, and supporting implementation and evaluation of interventions to promote whole campus health and wellbeing. The CCWS is coordinated by the POP-PA lab.

The COMPASS study, funded by the Canadian Institutes of Health Research (CIHR) and Health Canada, started in 2012-13 in Ontario, and was expanded to BC in 2016-17. Our team at UBC is responsible for facilitating the project in secondary schools across BC.

The COMPASS system is a research platform for evaluating natural experiments and generating practice-based evidence in school-based prevention. The COMPASS system is focused on enabling the timely and robust generation of knowledge and evidence to advance youth health, by building the capacity to integrate research, evaluation, policy, and practice within the Canadian (and international) prevention system. The POP-PA lab leads the COMPASS deployment in British Columbia. Learn more about https://uwaterloo.ca/compass-system/.

Approximately 5 million Canadians use health services for a mental illness annually at a cost well in excess of $50 billion. Depression is one of the largest sources of disease burden. Conventional depression treatments (therapy/medication) are expensive and have limited appeal and accessibility for many individuals with depression. There is an urgent need for innovative treatment options that can ultimately reach all Canadians with depression. Meta-analyses consistently demonstrate that exercise is as effective in reducing depressive symptoms as conventional therapies. Acknowledgement of this body of evidence is now reflected in the new Canadian Network for Mood and Anxiety Treatments (CANMAT) 2016 Clinical Guidelines for Depression. While exercise will now be considered a treatment option for depression it is unclear how guidelines will be implemented. Funded by a CIHR Foundation grant, this research program is addressing the critical clinical and research gap through discovering and sharing knowledge about how best to get people with depression, more active, more often. This work includes the development of a toolkit to help mental health professionals discuss exercise as a treatment option (www.exerciseanddepression.ca), resources to support exercise professionals (https://store.csep.ca/products/advanced-learning-module-mental-health-and-exercise), and the development and assessment of different exercise referral pathways for individuals with depression.

The POP-PA lab collaborates extensively with ParticipACTION on a range of projects. ParticipACTION is a national non-profit organization that inspires and supports Canadians to make physical activity a vital part of their everyday life (https://www.participaction.com). One focus for the lab is an ongoing evaluation of the PAC App - https://www.participaction.com/app/

Physical Literacy for Communities (https://physicalliteracy.ca/communities/) is a program of Sport for Life. The purpose of the program is to support community leaders across the country who are committed to creating and sustaining healthy, active communities through the development of physical literacy to improve physical activity and quality sport. The national Physical Literacy for Communities (PL4C) initiative (https://physicalliteracy.ca/national-initiative/) is being scaled to include new Physical Literacy for Communities communities in Northern BC, Alberta, Quebec and Atlantic Canada. It is a long-term approach to supporting people and creating healthy communities. An initiative of the Public Health Agency of Canada (PHAC), delivered by Sport for Life, PHAC PL4C is a 36-month project designed to support the development of physical literacy in 150,000 children and youth aged 2-18 across Canada, beginning in 2022. We have a particular focus on examining physical literacy in the West Vancouver School District – WAVES PL.

SUNRISE is an International Study of Movement Behaviours in the Early Years. Bringing together researchers from low, middle, and high income countries across the globe, the SUNRISE study aims to measure physical activity, sedentary behaviour and sleep for children under the age of 5 years. The SUNRISE Coordinating Centre is based at the University of Wollongong, Australia. With funding from CIHR, we will be assessing the movement behaviours of over 200 infants in British Columbia.
