About
Gökhan TUNA is a Researcher at Trakya University Kırkpınar Faculty of Sports Sciences, focusing on the intersection of sports genetics, exercise physiology, and athletic performance optimization. His work investigates how genetic polymorphisms (e.g., ACTN3, IL-6, COL1A1) and physical training protocols (e.g., dynamic stretching tempos, breath-holding exercises) influence performance metrics in athletes.
Educational Background:
- PhD in Sports Sciences (Marmara University, 2022): Thesis on genetic and anthropometric factors affecting swimming performance.
- MSc in Sports Sciences (Kocaeli University, 2015): Focused on warm-up protocols and athletic performance.
- BSc in Sports Sciences (Marmara University, 2010): Examined warm-up effects on athletes.
Research Themes:
- Genetic determinants of athletic performance (ACTN3, IL-6, COL1A1, MCT1, GABPB1 polymorphisms).
- Physiological adaptations to dynamic stretching tempos and breath-holding exercises.
- Anthropometric profiling in endurance vs. sprint athletes.
