Michael Bruneau's research interests include the use of physical activity and exercise as a nonpharmacological lifestyle therapy for the prevention, treatment, and control of chronic disease. His more recent work has involved the examination of supervised exercise in clinical populations, including those living with overweight and obesity, hypertension, chronic kidney disease, HIV/AIDS, and substance use disorder. Aside from his experience with exercise interventional trials, Michael has also conducted research in the sciences of systematic review and meta-analysis.

Emmanuel Stamatakis is Professor of Physical Activity, Lifestyle, and Population Health at The University of Sydney. Emmanuel leads a research program of epidemiologic and interventional research investigating how lifestyles and health related behaviours (physical activity, sedentary behaviour, screen time, alcohol consumption, sleep, dog ownership) influence cardiometabolic health, mental wellbeing and mortality risk; and how the socioeconomic environment influences these lifestyle health behaviours and their health effects.

Professor Neville Owen  works at the Physical Activity and Behavioural Epidemiology Research Group, Baker Heart and Diabetes Institute. His research relates to the primary prevention of diabetes, heart disease and cancer, through identifying the health consequences and environmental determinants of physical inactivity and sedentary behaviour — too little exercise and too much sitting. This involves laboratory-based experimental work, large-scale prospective observational studies and real-world intervention trials. He has published some 500 peer-reviewed papers and chapters.
