BIO

Dr. Trinh's research agenda is focused on the development of evidence-based and theoretically-driven physical activity and sedentary behaviour interventions for cancer control and survivorship. Her main research interests include examining: a) the effects of physical activity in cancer survivors on symptom management (e.g., quality of life, fatigue, cognitive function) and health-related fitness outcomes (e.g., cardiorespiratory fitness, muscular strength/endurance, physical function); b) behaviour change interventions for increasing physical activity and reducing sedentary behaviour in cancer survivors; and c) profiling physical activity levels, patterns, and determinants in cancer survivors. Dr. Trinh's secondary line of research is a focus on sedentary behaviour and establishing how these patterns (i.e., volume; bout length; breaks in sitting time) are related to physical and psychosocial health outcomes.
