Denver is currently an Assistant Professor in the Department of Kinesiology at Kansas State University. He completed his PhD in Kinesiology at McMaster University and then went on to complete Postdoctoral Fellowships in the Mental Health and Physical Activity Research Centre at the University of Toronto and the Department of Family Medicine at McMaster University. The overarching goal of Dr. Brown’s research program is to improve the health and well-being of children and youth through helping them to adopt and maintain physically active lifestyles. Given the complex challenges of accomplishing this goal, he works at the intersection of multiple disciplines, including but not limited to: exercise psychology, behavioral medicine and time-use epidemiology. His current research focuses primarily on two streams of inquiry directed towards: 1) application and refinement of theories/models used for understanding physical activity maintenance with an emphasis on post-intentional processes such as identity and habit; and 2) understanding how physical activity and other movement behaviors (i.e., sleep and sedentary behavior) that we engage in over the course of a whole day interact to influence mental health symptomology as a complex dynamic system.
