I am a Senior Research Fellow and recipient of an NHMRC Emerging Leader Fellowship, specialising in mental health and behavioural medicine. My primary research expertise include mental health and wellbeing in elite and professional sportspeople, the relationship between physical activity and mood and anxiety disorders in young people, and exploring the links between mental and physical health. I am also an Honorary Senior Research Fellow with the Mental Health in Elite Sport team at Orygen, University of Melbourne and a practicing clinical psychologist, where my work largely focusses on supporting high performance athletes and other individuals within the sports system who have mental health or wellbeing concerns.

Jonn Axsen employs interdisciplinary and mixed-method research approaches to identify solutions for today’s enormous environmental challenge: mitigating greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, of which almost a quarter arise from ground transportation. His research demonstrates that such solutions require an understanding of individual decision-making, social systems and culture, technology development, and public policy.
