Education
Dr. Bigliassi has been active in the field of psychophysiology and exercise psychology for over a decade. He received his PhD from Brunel University London, UK, where he conducted a research programme to further understanding of the brain mechanisms underlying the effects of dissociative techniques on exercise. He was then hired as a postdoctoral research fellow at University of São Paulo, Brazil, where he conducted a series of studies to explore the use of associative strategies during execution of gross movements. Upon completion of his fellowship, he accepted a tenure-track position in the College of Arts, Sciences & Education at Florida International University, USA.
