Biography

Matthew Mclaughlin (Tepi) is a PhD Student at the University of Newcastle, a Research Assistant at Hunter New England Population Health, and the Chair of the ISPAH Early Career Network. Tepi also holds a number of consultancy positions in social media, including Social Media Editor of the Journal of Sports Sciences. His avid interest is in getting physical activity and sedentary behaviour evidence into practice. Tepi strives to translate his research through effective knowledge translation using: 

Tepi’s core research focus is in the implementation, scaling and dissemination of efficacious physical activity interventions. In 2017, Tepi completed his Sport and Exercise Science BSc (Hons) at Loughborough University and the University of Western Australia. In 2015, Tepi took a year out of study to complete a one year work placement in research, a Diploma of Professional Studies.

 Tepi is very active on Twitter (@HealthTepi), get in contact!

Tepi along with colleagues from Hunter New England Population Health has set up a pilot-system for integrating Knowledge Translation into research and service delivery projects (see below image). The newly formed group of keen staff, the 'Knowledge Translation Champions', are undertaking piloting work until November 2019. 


Tepi recently presented at the ISPAH congress in London.
