As a sports physician, I have given lectures on the topic of travel fatigue and jet lag at the IOC Advanced Team Physician Course since 2016. I have an interest in research and have completed my PhD on the effect of exercise in patients suffering from rheumatoid arthritis. I have accompanied single- (mainly netball) and multi-coded teams to international events, including the Olympics and the Commonwealth Games. I am currently a Professor at the University of Pretoria and Head of Department of Sports Medicine and the President of the South African Sports Medicine Association.
