Alex Lascu is a researcher and cricket coach from Australia. She has dual Bachelor's degrees (Exercise Science & Psychology) from the University of Queensland and is now studying a PhD at the University of Canberra. Alex is passionate about the pursuit of research in sport, focusing on talent development of female cricketers.

In this conversation we cover the following...

  • Alex's approach to assessing the level of variability in practice sessions

  • Why here PhD supervisors can't believe the fact that the practices she studied are all exactly the same

  • Her thoughts on the role of emotions in the creation of learning environments
