ARE YOU A PHYSIOLOGY/NUTRITION RESEARCHER? 🧐

Here’s a few take home messages from our standardisation tutorial lecture yesterday at #ACSM24 @ACSMNews which you won’t want to miss!🧵

[Centre for Nutrition, Exercise and Metabolism @CNEM_Bath]

Well done to @SophieRussell99, Harry Yuen and the team for completing data collection on the KETO-GENETIC project! 🧬

A huge effort involving 69 participants, 130 trials and 260 adipose biopsies 🔬

Everyone at CNEM is proud of your hard work and looks forward to the results!👏

Editor-in-Chief takeover… This account is usually handled by Assistant Editor & Social Media Manager @MerrellLucy, but I would like to let you know that Lucy passed her viva last week with flying colours 🤩 It has been a pleasure supervising the newly appointed Dr Merrell! - JB

A dream come true! ✨ Thank you to my examiners for a really interesting and encouraging discussion, and of course everyone who supported the journey. There are no words to convey my gratitude to you @DrBSteamjets, so as Tina would say… you’re simply the best! 🙏🏻

[James Betts @DrBSteamjets]

Proud supervisor moment 😁 Huge congratulations to the new Dr @MerrellLucy, who passed her viva voce examination with flying colours yesterday. Thank you Prof David Stensel and Dr Ollie Peacock for examining her thesis.

A week ago I submitted my PhD thesis. I’m so grateful to everyone who has supported me over the past 4 years - what a journey 💛

Interested in physical activity interventions? Have you considered the effect of physical activity substitution? We examined this overlooked and neglected issue in our new paper⬇️ @CNEM_Bath

@MerrellLucy ...this was a real labour of love - I started accumulating these measurements shortly after my son Theo was born with #achondroplasia. Keep an eye out for @MerrellLucy's comprehensive lab study in this area, she is just writing that up now.

[James Betts @DrBSteamjets]

So proud of this one - @MerrellLucy published her first first-author original research paper today. Check it out here. https://t.co/gmIFACE5PR Reporting metabolic health markers in people with various restricted growth conditions.

[Lucy Merrell, PhD @MerrellLucy]

My first-first author paper on individuals with restricted growth conditions is out now! 🥳

Wouldn’t have been possible without my talented co-authors, and support from @RGAUK and @LPUKOnline with recruitment and testing.

New #GSSI SSE by @lfbradshaw & @DrBSteamjets :
Skeletal muscle is a key connection, linking rhythms in behavior & metabolism.
Exercise responses & performance vary according to time-of-day & the fed- versus fasted-state.

Thanks girls! @Rowland_SN @KatieMHutchins 🙏🏻🫶🏼

[Lucy Merrell, PhD @MerrellLucy]

What a great time @DrBSteamjets and I had at the @LPUKOnline annual convention today! I was so pleased to share more findings from my PhD as the story of the data unfolds. Thank you so much for having us!

6 weeks to go until the thesis is due! 🗓️
