Tactical Research Unit

The Tactical Research Unit (TRU) at Bond University works toward the protection and performance of individuals on the front line who protect our community and country. The TRU is a network of multi-disciplinary, international experts who investigate ways to optimise the physical and cognitive capabilities and safety of tactical personnel – whether military, law enforcement, firefighters, or first responder organisations. The overarching aim of the group is to improve the wellbeing and occupational performance of those who serve and ensure new research findings are shared across the different tactical populations. Mission: To enhance the protection and performance of tactical personnel through pragmatic research, education and advice. Vision: Excellence in research that will lead to improvements in the health, wellbeing and occupational performance of tactical personnel.
