Jere Gulin

Jere Gulin, PhD, is an Assistant Professor at the University of Zagreb, Faculty of Kinesiology. He completed his Master’s degree in 2017 and obtained his PhD in 2023 from the same institution. Since 2017, he has been engaged in teaching at undergraduate, graduate, professional coach education, and doctoral levels, with a focus on systematic kinesiology, research methodology, and kinesiology diagnostics. He has authored and co-authored several scientific and professional publications in well-established, peer-reviewed traditional journals in the field of sport and exercise science and has presented at national and international conferences. His research interests include the measurement properties of assessment instruments, metabolic and cardiorespiratory responses to exercise—particularly high-intensity interval training—and research methodology in kinesiology.
