Research Interests
Prof Wendy Huang’s research interest centers on the comprehensive spectrum of 24-hour movement behaviours, encompassing physical activity, sedentary behaviour, and sleep, across various populations. She is particularly intrigued by the interplay between these time-use elements and how they collectively influence overall health and child development. By leveraging advanced analytic techniques and emerging wearable devices, she seeks to capture a comprehensive picture of daily movement patterns. The implications of her research offer insights that can foster the development of holistic strategies for health optimization.
