Overview
Specifically, the Metabolism, Ageing and Physiology research programme from University of Nottingham endeavours to uncover the mechanisms regulating alterations in protein and energy metabolism with ageing and disease by combining:
- stable isotope methodologies
- molecular biology
- detailed in vivo human neuromuscular physiology
The group also studies the efficacy of exercise, nutrition and pharmacological interventions with the aim of transferring physiological insight into clinical settings.
Why choose to do a PhD with this research group?
The research group combines state-of-the-art in/ex-vivo methods to explore metabolic, molecular and neural adaptations that occur in human muscle with ageing and disease.
Careers
90% of postgraduates from the School of Medicine secured graduate level employment or further study within 15 months of graduation. The average annual salary for these graduates was £39,564.
