Albert Gollhofer

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Albert Gollhofer (born March 24, 1954 in Fellbach ) is a German sports scientist and university lecturer .

Life

Gollhofer studied sports science, physics and performance physiology at the Albert Ludwig University of Freiburg . In 1986, his doctoral thesis on the subject of "Components of rapid strength performance in the stretching-shortening cycle" was accepted in Freiburg, and between 1988 and 1994 he led a project funded by the German Research Foundation. From 1993 to 2000 Gollhofer was professor for biomechanics at the University of Stuttgart .

In September 2000 he took up a position as professor in the field of training and movement sciences at the Albert-Ludwigs-Universität Freiburg, he became director and full professor at the Institute for Sport and Sport Science. From 2014 to 2016 Gollhofer was Dean of the Faculty of Economics and Behavioral Sciences. Between 2007 and 2009 he was Chairman of the European College of Sport Science . From 2000 to 2002 Gollhofer was President of the German Society for Biomechanics. In 2013 and 2019, Gollhofer and colleagues were awarded the IDA Prize from the Albert Ludwig University of Freiburg.

Gollhofer's research focuses on adaptation mechanisms to training in popular and professional sport, methods for determining functional performance in sport, technique and condition diagnostics, neuromuscular performance profiles, the relationship between conditional performance and age, functional joint stability, injury prevention and orthopedic biomechanics. Gollhofer was co-author of the book “Introduction to Sports and Performance Medicine” and together with Erich Müller published the “Handbook of Sports Biomechanics”.
