Mariusz Konieczny serves as an Associate Professor in the Department of Physical Education and Sports at the Faculty of Physical Education and Physiotherapy, University of Opole. His academic role encompasses teaching responsibilities, research leadership, and student mentorship within sports science and physiotherapy disciplines. Office contact is maintained at room P9-305 with direct communication via m.konieczny@po.edu.pl. Dr. Konieczny's research program centers on neuromuscular physiology with emphases on bioelectrical activity analysis, trigger point pathophysiology, and caffeine's ergogenic effects. His work bridges biomechanics and sports medicine through investigations of muscle asymmetry in short-track athletes, fencing biomechanics, and obesity-related physiological responses. Current projects integrate artificial intelligence for frailty assessment and sensor-based movement analysis. Recent publications (2023-2025) reveal three dominant research streams: (1) Electromyography studies examining referred pain networks and muscle fatigue mechanisms in athletes, (2) Gender-specific analyses of caffeine metabolism in relation to body composition, and (3) Computational approaches applying deep learning to IMU sensor data for elderly health assessment. These works demonstrate interdisciplinary methodology spanning laboratory physiology, field sports testing, and advanced data analytics. No specific scientific awards are documented in available institutional records. As faculty, Dr. Konieczny supervises academic activities including thesis guidance and curriculum development. He actively engages students through extracurricular leadership as Guardian of the Student Sailing Club SZEKLA (contact: szekla.opole@gmail.com), demonstrating commitment to holistic athletic development. Research funding sources are not explicitly detailed in current institutional profiles. His departmental affiliation provides access to university candidate laboratories supporting biomechanics testing and physiological measurement. The sailing club represents his primary extracurricular team leadership, fostering competitive sailing among students while connecting academic physiology concepts to practical athletic performance.
