There is ongoing debate about who should be allowed to compete in female (girls’ & women’s) sports.

Brown has previously taught Anatomy & Physiology, Sports Nutrition, Research Methods, Sports Nutrition, and more. His research focuses on the effects of nutritional supplements, physiological responses to exercise, and sex-based differences in sports performance. Brown has over 50 peer-reviewed publications and serves as a peer reviewer for numerous academic journals. He is an active member of several professional organizations, including the National Strength and Conditioning Association and the American College of Sports Medicine, in which he is a fellow.
