In episode 2, Johanna Sick gives an insight into the field of exercise therapy and shares her personal experience of planning and running a human trial. Now in the fourth and final year of her PhD studies in Sport Science, Johanna has been involved in all the crucial steps of a scientific study and talks openly about what went wrong along the way, who supported her most and the mental health challenges she faced. Tune in to learn how exercise can be beneficial in the rehabilitation of people facing long covid-19 and why it can be helpful to talk to a therapist about your PhD journey.
