Our research interests are in the physiology and nutrition of physical activity and public health, with an interest in both the basic science of physical activity and the applied aspects that relate to health in physical activity. Much of our work has examined the effects of physical activity on risk factors for cardiovascular disease. A major focus of our research has concerned the effects of physical activity on fat (triacylglycerol) metabolism after meals in humans. More recently our activities have expanded to include work on physical activity and appetite regulation, physical activity and atherogenic lipids/inflammatory markers, nutrition and physical performance, and football science. We also have an established network with our domestic/international collaborators for conducting cutting-edge research on physical activity and health.
