Dr. Marc Nicolaus serves as a Researcher at the Institute of Sports Science within the Department of Educational and Social Sciences at the University of Hildesheim since 2012, with additional roles as athletic coach for the German national water polo team since 2008 and collaborations with the Hannover Medical School and Lower Saxony Olympic Training Center.
Education:
- 1988-1995: Studied sports science and educational science at Eberhard Karls University of Tübingen
- 1995: Diploma in Sports Education/Sports Science (Major: Sports, Minor: Pedagogy), Eberhard Karls University of Tübingen
- 2010: Doctorate in philology, Institute of Sport and Exercise Science, University of Stuttgart
His research centers on movement therapy for prevention and rehabilitation, performance diagnostics, and strength training with dual emphases in sports science and clinical applications. Early work demonstrated exercise-induced improvements in chronic venous insufficiency (CVI) patients, while recent publications explore gymnastics biomechanics including motor planning in whole-body rotations, interpersonal coordination, and somersault techniques. His teaching portfolio spans training science, sports medicine, physiology, and gymnastics practice.
Publication trends reveal evolution from vascular rehabilitation research (1994-1998) to contemporary sports biomechanics, reflecting his integration of academic research with elite athletic coaching. The 2011-2016 publications particularly highlight gymnastics technique analysis through motor control and coordination studies.
Dr. Nicolaus maintains active institutional partnerships with the Hannover Medical School's Institute of Sports Medicine and the Lower Saxony Olympic Training Center. He contributes to the University of Hildesheim's Healthy Campus initiative and teaches both theoretical courses (sports medicine, physiology) and practical sessions (gymnastics, movement arts), though no formal advisees or grant details are documented in available sources.
