Dr. Alyce Barnes is a dynamic Early and Mid-Career Researcher (EMCR) at the National Centre of Implementation Science within the University of Newcastle's College of Health, Medicine and Wellbeing and School of Medicine and Public Health. With over 14 years of experience in health promotion research and more than $1.5 million in secured funding, she specializes in developing innovative physical activity interventions targeting child and family healthy lifestyle practices. Her academic journey began with a Bachelor of Physical Education and Bachelor of Teaching (Honours), culminating in a PhD from the University of Newcastle focused on improving physical activity levels, health, and wellbeing of mothers and their primary-school aged daughters. Dr. Barnes' research program centers on addressing gender disparities in physical activity, with particular emphasis on empowering girls through evidence-based interventions. Her seminal work includes the internationally acclaimed Daughters & Dads Active & Empowered (DADEE) program, which has expanded from Newcastle to global implementation across the UK and Europe. This pioneering initiative enhances girls' physical activity, sport skills, and father/father-figure-daughter relationships while addressing fundamental movement skill deficiencies that disproportionately affect girls. Her research spans community-based interventions, school physical education, obesity prevention, and parenting practices related to physical activity. The trajectory of Dr. Barnes' publications reveals a consistent focus on family-based physical activity interventions, with recent work examining long-term program outcomes, implementation science, and adaptation for diverse populations. Her research demonstrates how engaging fathers significantly improves girls' physical activity levels and social-emotional wellbeing, while mother-daughter interventions show promise for adolescent health outcomes. The DADEE program's effectiveness in community settings (with 88-89% follow-up rates) has established it as a model for evidence-based implementation. 3 Minute Thesis Winner - Faculty of Education and Arts Final (2012) Lake Macquarie City Council Ambassador (2025) Lake Mac Sports Leader of the Year (2025) Dr. Barnes has successfully secured 11 research grants totaling $1,590,062, including major projects like the $442,336 HMRI grant for embedding DADEE in local communities and the $399,947 Greater Charitable Foundation grant for Healthy Youngsters, Healthy Dads. Her collaborative approach spans disciplines including pedagogy, exercise science, psychology, dietetics, and behavioral science, with significant international partnerships in the UK and USA. She has mentored numerous research staff and students through her role as Co-Investigator on multiple projects. As lead of the National Centre of Implementation Science's physical activity research team, Dr. Barnes directs a multidisciplinary group focused on translating evidence into practice. Her current work emphasizes scaling successful interventions like DADEE through innovative partnerships, with ongoing projects examining program adaptability across different cultural contexts and age groups. Future directions include expanding the SOLE MATES program for mother-teen physical activity and developing new interventions targeting underserved communities.
