Raymond Leung, Associate Professor
Raymond Leung's interests are on interdisciplinary and integrative approaches to exercise physiology and biomechanics. He views the "physiology" aspect as applied biology and chemistry while "biomechanics" is the application of mathematics and physics. Imagine, if you integrate the four basic sciences and apply them in some meaningful manner to our dynamic human body, this turns to what he termed as "integrative physiology and biomechanics of exercise." Leung applies his knowledge in kinesiology to tackle the pressing societal issues such as obesity, diabetes and lifestyle-related premature diseases.
Howard Z. Zeng, Associate Professor
Howard Z. Zeng's fields of research are in physical education and sport pedagogy. Over the years, he has successfully conducted more than 20 research projects, with 10 plus research grants supported, that have allowed he contributed nearly 90 papers, abstracts, monographs, and books to the field of physical education and sport pedagogy; of which 40+ are in peer reviewed journals (some of them are SSCI or SCI Journals). Zeng is also a reviewer for multiple academic journals in the United States and Europe. He has been recognized as "honoree" by the Brooklyn College Library Annual Book Party for 10 times. Total books / monographs (all in sport pedagogy) published are 20. He has served as a member of the scientific / advisory board for the "Ido Movement for Culture" Journal of Martial Arts Anthropology for the last 10 years. Additionally, he presented many research articles internationally (e.g., Summer Olympic Scientific Congress (by ICSEMS), World Conference in Sport and Physical Education (by AIESEP)). Remarkably, he has presented 16 research projects in SHAPE America National Convention, and these articles have published in the Journal of Research Quarterly for Exercise and Sport (a SSCI & SCI journal).
