Such a great week at #ACSM26! Shared some very cool metabolomics and proteomics data from a @UConn x @brooksrunning collab.

So grateful I get to work with @ecleelab and @BridgetSopena, 2 amazing women who demonstrated what a true multidisciplinary collaboration should look like

[Dr Kate Edwards @KH_Edwards]

Looking forward to #ACSM26 starting tomorrow! But first, putting all that altitude, heat and nutrition knowledge into practice with a long weekend of trail running in the beautiful #ParkCityUtah

[Dr Kate Edwards @KH_Edwards]

9 mths ago I left Tassie for a postdoc at @UConn with the brilliant @ecleelab. Today I’m lucky enough to be in a George Brooks lecture after a great few days with the team at #APS2025. So much to learn! Stay tuned for super interesting resilience, heat, and multi-omics research!

Surprised and delighted to receive a Letter of Commendation from the Deputy Vice-Chancellor Education @UTAS_

Huge thanks to my lovely students who were an absolute pleasure to teach and who took the time to provide feedback.

[Dr Kate Edwards @KH_Edwards]

@Brads_science @LifeSciWestmin Thanks for having me!

Was great to see you, hopefully an in-person catch up isn’t too far away…

[Bradley Elliott @Brads_science]

Great to have @LifeSciWestmin alumn @KH_Edwards back today for our Sports Nutrition MSc students. Sacrificing sleep to give a lecture at 2am Tasmania time on her research into gut damage markers and endurance exercise, as well as her journey to where she is today

🧵Female athletes please read:

1. The menstrual cycle does NOT have a dropsies phase

2. There is no high-quality evidence to say that your reaction time will be decreased in Phase 1 (when oestrogen and progesterone are low) & 4 (when oestrogen and progesterone are high)

Good morning Sydney!

Was supposed to be a short run but got distracted by memories of old haunts and good times (🙈).

It’s good to be back 😊

[Dr Kate Edwards @KH_Edwards]

It’s arrived!

I’ve been waiting (im)patiently for this book by the fab @cyu888 since I ordered it back in May.

Looking forward to finally reading it!

[Dr Kate Edwards @KH_Edwards]

@syd_health @Dr_NChapman @WARC_USYD Niamh @Dr_NChapman that is brilliant news. Congratulations 🥳
