Dr. Jo Ann Buysse, senior lecturer in the School of Kinesiology, was invited to present at the Women’s Expo, part of Oxfam Italia World Expo 2015, in Milan on July 2.

The session, “Feeding the Brain: Challenging Role Models Through Sport,” addressed stereotypes of women in the sports world. Featured speakers were Dr. Buysse and Dr. Gertrud Pfister from the University of Copenhagen, followed by a sport journalist, who led a question/answer session with a group of national team athletes and sport executives who shared their experiences.  “It was a great honor to be invited,” says Dr. Buysse.
