Jonathan M Peake, PhD
Verified record
Career Timeline (Verified)
- Earned a PhD at the University of Queensland: OpenAlex lists a 2004 University of Queensland work on his profile ("The influence of exercise intensity and downhill running on stress responses..." thesis-type record), and his earliest PubMed-indexed paper (PMID 12690938, 2002) carries a UQ School of Human Movement Studies affiliation. Caveat: the thesis record is dated 2004; the exact PhD year is unverified - omitted (no completion year is stated).
- Academic career at the University of Queensland through at least 2013 (his 2013 Sports Medicine paper PMID 23912805 sits in his UQ-era corpus), then moved to Queensland University of Technology (QUT), Brisbane, where he remains: on Study 1 (2018) and on papers as recent as 2026 his PubMed affiliations are QUT (School of Biomedical Sciences / Institute of Health and Biomedical Innovation) combined with the Queensland Academy of Sport (QAS), where he is affiliated with the Sport Performance Innovation and Knowledge Excellence (SPIKE) program. Sources: PubMed affiliation fields on PMIDs 12690938, 23912805, 29470824, 41875053, 42487262.
- A QUT academic profile page exists (linked in Sources) but its contents could not be fetched during verification (the page blocks non-browser access), so his current title at QUT is unverified - omitted.
