BIO

Dr James Murray is a Lecturer in Clinical Exercise Physiology in the School of Human Performance, Rehabilitation and Population Health, Faculty of Health. He is a Fellow of the Higher Education Academy (FHEA), and an Accredited Exercise Physiologist, with his clinical experience spanning private, community, and research settings, commonly working with people from low socioeconomic backgrounds, and people with living cancer and cardiovascular diseases. James completed his PhD in 2023, with his research exploring the protective role of exercise on cardiovascular health and function in women impacted by cancer and cardiovascular diseases, and ways exercise participation can be enhanced during chemotherapy for breast cancer. James' current research explores the role of exercise as part of survivorship care in cancer, with a focus on culturally and linguistically diverse populations and alternative exercise modalities (blood flow restriction training). James also has an interest in exercise-based prehabilitation in oncology settings, including its cardioprotective role prior to the commencement of anti-cancer therapies. As an early career researcher, James has authored several peer-reviewed publications (with >220 citations), obtained $50 000 AUD in grant funding, and presented his research both nationally and internationally. James has supervised three honours students (2 completed, 1 ongoing), and one PhD student (ongoing).
