2022  Exercise and Sports Science Australia Research Grant: Exercise for Adults with Diabetic Foot Ulcers (The DFUEx Study)

1. Best Clinical Poster: Australian Diabetes Congress 2021

‘Low Volume High Intensity Interval Training with Progressive Resistance Training Increases Proportion of Anti-atherogenic CD31+ T Cells in Obese People with Normal Glucose and Prediabetes’

  • Therapeutic Interventions for NASH - A systematic review.
  • The DFUEx Study - a randomised control trial for adults with diabetic foot ulcers.
  • CD31+ T cells in Cardiovascular Disease and Insulin Resistance - Using mass cytometry and computational analysis to examine the impact of insulin resistance on immune cells associated with atherosclerosis.
  • Critical VAT Threshold Theory - Is there a threshold amount of VAT, when exceeded leads to metabolic disease/insulin resistance.
