Dr Jairo H. Migueles studied Physical Activity and Sport Sciences (2009-2013) and a Research Master in Physical Activity and Sport at the University of Granada (2014-2015).
He is currently doing his doctoral thesis at the University of Granada with the ActiveBrains project (effects of a randomized controlled exercise program on cognition, mental and physical health in overweight and obese preadolescents).
His main areas of interest are:
Evaluation of physical activity, energy expenditure and sleep objectively through accelerometry.
Assessment of physical fitness in young population
Study of the effects of physical activity, physical exercise and sleep on different dimensions of physical, mental, cognition and brain health in young people.
Physical exercise interventions through the use of mobile phones (SmartPhones), which today is known as m-Health
