In creating a lovely multidisciplinary picture of what we do are we maybe losing some key elements of individual disciplines. A word cloud might help to show that all of the disciplines are included and working together. Keep the simple in with the more complex.

i.e someone searching the website for a particular person/skill set may not know where to find them through a purely multidisciplinary description.

Having said that, this is only a headline description and therefore can't be expected to do everything!

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.description
The research interests of Professor Hermsdörfer are the principals of human movement and motor learning with particular respect to the underlying neuronal mechanisms. Using methods of movement analysis and neuroimaging, his current research explores elementary sensorimotor ability, complex routine actions and sporting activities in the areas of leisure and high performance.

The personal, economic and social costs of poor health and wellbeing are enormous. For example, Non-Communicable Diseases (NCDs) such as cardiovascular disease, cancer and type 2 diabetes are responsible for around two thirds of mortality around the world (). Without action, it is estimated that NCDs will cost $7 trillion over the next 20 years through loss of productivity and the price of health care (). At the same time, as people live longer lives, the ageing demographic introduces new challenges to health care systems and society. It is estimated that, in the UK alone, more than 15 million people are already living with some form of long-term condition ().

What do we do?

Our research seeks to prevent long-term conditions from developing in the first place as well as support people who are affected by a long-term condition. This includes research to prevent illness and promote wellbeing through changes on many levels - local and global contexts, social inequality, cultural practices and individual behaviours related to tobacco use, unhealthy diets, physical inactivity and alcohol. A key aim of our research is to develop person-centred, socially-just and cost-effective interventions, policies and programmes which target both primary prevention and therapeutic treatments.

Our research methodologies include epidemiology, systematic reviews, clinical trials, qualitative studies, policy and media analysis, participatory action research, laboratory mechanistic investigations, mathematical modelling and evaluation studies.
