OccupationProfessor

Dr. Panagiota (Nota) Klentrou is a professor in the Department of Kinesiology at Brock University, Ontario, Canada[1]. She received a BSc (1981) in Physical Education and Sport Science from the National University of Athens, Greece, and an MSc (1987) and PhD (1991) in Exercise Physiology from the University of Montréal, Québec, Canada. Dr. Klentrou was chair of the Department of Kinesiology at Brock University for two consecutive terms (2006-2011), and the Associate Dean Research and Graduate Studies of the Faculty of Applied Health Sciences for three consecutive terms (2011-2020)[2]. For her scientific and community contributions, Dr. Klentrou has been recognized as a leader in Exercise and Paediatric Physiology, becoming one of only four women presidents of the Canadian Society for Exercise Physiology (CSEP, 2017-2019), a position to which she was elected after serving 10 years as treasurer of the Society[3]. She is currently a CSEP Fellow[4]. A retired international rhythmic gymnast herself, she has been involved with many local, provincial, national and International organizations including Osteoporosis Canada, the International Gymnastics Federation, the Athens 2004 Summer Olympic Games and the Toronto 2015 Pan-American Games.

Research Interests

Dr. Klentrou's research programme uses applied and basic science approaches to study human performance and the implications of sport training primarily in children and youth[5][6][7][8][9][10].[11] Specifically, her research examines how sexual maturation, exercise, inflammation, adiposity and nutrition affect musculoskeletal growth and development[12] [13] [14] [15][16][17]. This research is trying to identify the cellular mechanisms that explain how exercise training and dietary choices during childhood and adolescence affects lifelong bone health[18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25].

Personal Life

Dr. Klentrou was born and raised in Athens, Greece. Both her mother (Kassiani Klentrou-Papakonstantopoulou) and father (Panagiotis Klentros) were elementary school teachers and she has one sister (Marina). Young Nota attended the 45th elementary school (grades 1-6) of Athens and later the 6th female middle school (grades 7-9) of Athens, which then became the 30th lycée (grades 10-12) of Athens. During these early school years, she took ballet lessons and joined the artistic gymnastics team of Lila Savrami, competing under the Panellinios Athletic Club. From 1980 to 1984 she completed her studies in Physical Education and Sports Science at the National Kapodistrian University of Athens. During this time, she was recruited by Eleni Lambrou to join the first rhythmic gymnastics program in Greece under the title "Gymnastic and Laographic Club of Athens" (G.L.O.A.). As member of the first Greek National Team of Rhythmic Gymnastics, Nota placed 6th in ribbon and 7th in Clubs during the 1983 Balkan Games in Serres, Greece. She was also a political activist with the Student Association. After she graduated form the University of Athens, Dr. Klentrou moved to Québec, Canada to complete her MSc and PhD in the Département d'Education Physique (today Département de Kinésiologie) of the Université de Montréal. Upon completion of her doctoral degree, she moved to Toronto with her husband, Dr. Vladimiros Papangelakis, with whom she has been married since 1989. They have one daughter (Elli) and twin sons (Georgios and Panagiotis).

Academic Life

Dr. Klentrou joined Brock University in 1996 as an assistant professor, reaching the highest rank of Professor in 2007. She has served as chair of her Department of Kinesiology for two consecutive terms (2006-2011), and as Associate Dean Research and Graduate Studies of the Faculty of Applied Health Sciences for three consecutive terms (2011-2020). She has been a University Senator for 15 years and chaired several Senate Committees including the Senate Planning, Priorities and Budget Advisory Committee, the Graduate Studies Committee, the Information Technology and Infrastructure Committee, the Ad Hoc Committee for Academic Program Review and Prioritization, as well as the University’s Space Evaluation Committee. Beyond Brock, she has been an active member of the Canadian Society for Exercise Physiology (CSEP). She was treasurer of CSEP from 2003-2013, and then chair-elect and chair from 2016-2019.
