Biography
Professor Tony Myers is experienced in applied data analysis methods. He advises researchers, PhD and MRes students on statistical analysis in general, and applied Bayesian modelling in particular. He chairs the Journal of Sports Science Statistics and Research Design Advisory Group and founded the British Association of Sport and Exercise Sciences (BASES) Sport, Exercise and Health Analytics Special Interest Group. Professor Myers has presented webinars on Bayesian data analysis to audiences across the globe through Human Kinetics, BASES, and the Biomechanics Lecture Series. He is involved in several national and international collaborations and funded projects. These include collaborations with researchers in the USA, Dubai, Tunisia, Germany, Portugal, and Australia. Professor Myers has built a reputation as a world authority on the influences on judging Muay Thai. He was a principal investigator for research projects researching the sport over a fifteen-year period. He has accepted several invitations to disseminate his research findings through presentations and seminars across the UK, Ireland, Denmark, Canada, and the USA. In addition, he is an internationally recognised coach in the sport, training several British, European and World professional Muay Thai champions.
In REF 2014 and REF 2021, Professor Myers’ impact case studies were recognised as internationally excellent in social impact. He has been involved in several successful funded bids both nationally and internationally. Professor Myers was involved in a project with Sport Malta funded by the Maltese government. The project explored the efficacy of a diet and physical activity intervention in Malta. He presented the findings to all the EU directors of sport in Malta on 15-16 March 2017. Following his presentation, the Maltese Parliamentary Secretary for Research, Innovation, Youth and Sport announced that the project was made available to all schools across Malta. Nationally, Professor Myers was part of a successful HEA strategic excellence initiative bid at Newman, ‘Enhancing retention, progression and achievement through student partnership’ project. He analysed university data to produce a statistical report that explored the influence of subject area, entry qualifications, disability and ethnicity on success and achievement. This resulted in important changes across some subject areas. Professor Myers is now Director of Studies for a PhD scholarship funded by £424,457 from Comic Relief’s ‘Ahead of the Game’ fund. In addition, he was an external assessor for international research bids including a Research Council and Industrieel Onderzoeksfonds (IOF) Council of KU Leuven funding bid for €538,147.00 on Integrated computer modelling of cardiorespiratory fitness for personalised risk profiling and heart failure prevention, and a Swiss National Science Foundation funding bid for Swiss National Roadmap for Research Infrastructures — Digital Sports Data Hub (DSDH) for CHF 135,037,10.00.
Professor Myers is currently Director of Studies for two PhD students at Newman and supervises two more, plus one from the University of Hull. Professor Myers has supervised several students to completion at Newman. He was formerly an external examiner for a coaching programme at the University of Wolverhampton, two programmes at the University of Chichester, as well as externally examining PhD, EdD and MRes students from Leeds Beckett University, University of Birmingham and Coventry University.
Profile
Research Interests
Professor Myers’ research interests include quantitative and qualitative research into sport, exercise and public health, but particularly focus on applied statistical modelling.
He has supervised or advised PhD students on Bayesian modelling to explore the training process in different sports, training load measures in sport, maturation and its effect on speed and strength, what predicts football academy players being retained or getting a professional contract, mental toughness in sport, and the success of wearable technology in monitoring heart rate and cadence-guided walking to achieve moderate intensity physical activity.
Professor Myers has also supervised PhD students on using Ecological Systems Theory for athlete development and mental toughness development, as well as a realist evaluation of the success of a mental health and sport project.
Beyond supporting PhD students, Professor Myers some examples of the work he has done in terms of advising and working alongside national and international research teams, include modelling data for predicting swimming success using anthropometric data, identifying the best predictors of health outcomes from anthropometric measures, producing normative/ reference charts for hand grip strength and for fitness tests for particular populations, producing minute ventilation/carbon dioxide production slopes using centile growth curves, modelling the impact of sleep deprivation on physical and psychological performance and on the effects of maturation.
