Adamantios Arampatzis is the head of the Department of Training and Movement Sciences at the Humboldt-University Berlin. He finished his PhD in training and movement sciences in 1995 and his habiliation in biomechanics in 2002 at the German Sports University Cologne.
His research is focused on the adaptation of the musculosceletal system after long- and short-term mechanical loading, on the understanding the interaction between the adapted musculoskeletal system and the resulted movement control and regulation under healthy and pathological conditions and on the development of interventions aiming to improve the safety and coordination of human movement.
He is author and co-author for more than 100 peer review publications in movement science, biomechanics and exercise physiology. He is a member of the editorial board of the Journal of Biomechanics and the Journal of Electromyography and Kinesiology and member of various scientific associations, i.e. the International, European, German and Hellenic Societies of Biomechanics and the European College of Sports Science.
