Mae Dr Neil Bezodis yn Athro Cyswllt mewn Biomecaneg a Thechnoleg yn yr Ysgol Gwyddorau Chwaraeon ac Ymarfer Corff, ac ar hyn o bryd mae'n arwain y Grŵp Ymchwil Chwaraeon Elitaidd a Phroffesiynol (EPS). Mae Neil wedi bod yn Gymrawd yr Academi Addysg Uwch (HEA) ers 2012 ac yn gyfarwyddwr etholedig y Gymdeithas Ryngwladol Biomecaneg mewn Chwaraeon (ISBS) ers 2014. Daeth yn Gymrawd ISBS yn 2017, ac fe'i hetholwyd yn Is-lywydd (Dyfarniadau) yn 2019.

Ar hyn o bryd Neil yw'r Cyd-AP (arweinydd Gwyddor Chwaraeon) ar brosiect a ariennir gan Lywodraeth Cymru sy'n cael ei arwain gan EPS a Chanolfan Argraffu a Chaenu Cymru ac mae’n gweithio mewn cydweithrediad ag amrywiaeth o bartneriaid diwydiannol gan gynnwys Sefydliad Chwaraeon Lloegr. Mae'r prosiect hwn yn datblygu amrywiaeth o ddyfeisiau clyfar printiedig i'w defnyddio ar draws sbectrwm eang o gymwysiadau, gan gynnwys ar gyfer athletwyr Olympaidd i baratoi ar gyfer Gemau Olympaidd Tokyo 2021.

Mae diddordebau ymchwil eang Neil yn canolbwyntio ar ddeall biomecaneg technegau chwaraeon, gan ganolbwyntio'n benodol ar gyflymiad gwibio a Rygbi'r Undeb. Mae'r ymchwil hon yn cynnwys amrywiaeth o dechnegau, yn eu plith ddulliau empirig ac efelychiadol. Drwy gydol ei yrfa ymchwil, mae Neil wedi gweithio'n agos gydag amrywiaeth o sefydliadau chwaraeon gan gynnwys British Athletics, Sefydliad Chwaraeon Lloegr (EIS), Yr Undeb Rygbi (RFU), Rygbi'r Scarlets a Nofio Cymru.

Fel rhan o'r ymchwil hon, mae Neil hefyd yn cydweithio ag amrywiaeth o academyddion rhyngwladol blaenllaw o sefydliadau gan gynnwys Prifysgol Dechnoleg Auckland (Seland Newydd), Prifysgol Fukuoka (Japan), Y Sefydliad Cenedlaethol Ffitrwydd a Chwaraeon yn Kanoya (Japan), Prifysgol Preoria (De Affrica), Prifysgol Tsukuba (Japan), a Phrifysgol Victoria (Awstralia).

SR-146 Introduction to Biomechanics 2

The purpose of the module is to develop knowledge and understanding of the fundamental mechanical concepts and principles that underlie human movement. The module introduces the study of kinetics.
SR-258 Biomechanical Technology, Measurement & Analysis

The module aims to introduce students to the application of biomechanical theory and technology (hardware and software) to the measurement, analysis and understanding of human motion. The module will provide students with an advanced understanding of linear and angular kinematics and kinetics, and will provide the opportunity to experience laboratory work using biomechanics equipment and software to collect and analyse data. The module will lay the foundations for study of biomechanics and technology at Level 3.
SR-D00 SPEX M Level Dissertation

Study for the dissertation, which may comprise systematic evaluation of literature, the conduct of research, evaluation of professional practice, or any combination of these through discussion with their project supervisor. Although preparatory work on the dissertation may take place during TB1 and 2 of the programme, the research project will be primarily carried out over TB3 with the dissertation being submitted at the end of September. In this module the student will be exposed to all aspects of modern information retrieval processes, the organisation and resourcing of research, advanced time management, and the organising and presentation of data. The student must make inferences on conclusions, based on the evidence generated and supported by the empirical evidence. Furthermore, they must assess the significance of this work in relation to the field and make suggestions about how further work could improve or clarify the research problem. The results of the project will be disseminated in a dissertation report/thesis demonstrating the student's ability to research a subject, in-depth, as well as via an infographic demonstrating the ability to disseminate to a variety of audiences and stakeholders. The student will meet regularly with their supervisor(s) to ensure that the project is well developed, organised, and executed. Progress will be monitored formally through a project proposal presentation.
