Rhoia Clara Neidenbach

Rhoia Clara Neidenbach serves as Assistant Professor at the University of Vienna within the Department of Sport and Human Movement Science, part of the Vienna Doctoral School of Pharmaceutical, Nutritional and Sport Sciences (VDS PhaNuSpo). Her academic work spans teaching responsibilities across multiple courses including Introduction to Sport and Movement Science, Health-Oriented Physical Activities, and supervision of bachelor theses in the Leistungsphysiologie/Sportmedizin (Performance Physiology/Sports Medicine) department.

Her research focuses on Sports Medicine, Exercise Physiology, and Prevention, with particular emphasis on cardiovascular applications. Dr. Neidenbach's work demonstrates strong interdisciplinary connections between sports science and cardiology, especially in the context of congenital heart disease. Her research portfolio reveals consistent scholarly output since 2017, with 27 publications highlighting collaborations with prominent researchers like Jürgen Scharhag, Peter Scharhag, and Hans Kaemmerer.

Analysis of her publication trends shows a clear research trajectory centered on sports cardiology applications, particularly examining cardiac adaptations to exercise, myocarditis screening in athletes post-COVID, and exercise physiology in special populations including those with congenital heart conditions. Her work bridges the gap between theoretical sports science and practical clinical applications, contributing significantly to understanding how physical activity affects cardiovascular health in diverse populations.

As an active member of the academic community, she participates in research activities that align with UN Sustainable Development Goals related to health and well-being. Her collaborative network extends across multiple institutions, reflecting the interdisciplinary nature of her research in sports medicine and cardiology.
