About the Author
Liane Azevedo is a researcher in the field of public health, specialising in the promotion of physical activity among children and adolescents. Her work primarily focuses on early childhood movement behaviours, examining both physical activity and sedentary behaviour. Throughout her career, Professor Azevedo has conducted numerous studies to understand the factors influencing these behaviours and has developed targeted interventions to increase physical activity and reduce sedentary behaviour among children and youth. She has a particular interest in how the use of interactive electronic devices, such as tablets and smartphones, at a young age can affect children’s development, health, and overall well-being in the long term.
Wendy Yajun Huang research interest centers on the comprehensive spectrum of 24-hour movement behaviours, encompassing physical activity, sedentary behaviour, and sleep, in children. 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 and how holistic interventions can be developed to improve these behaviours. Her recent work also focuses on development of a report card on 24-hour movement behaviour for the early years.
