Research Overview
My interests lie in human and animal energetics.
Current Research
I currently manage the doubly labelled water facility at the University of Aberdeen. We are happy to collaborate with other research groups to measure daily energy expenditure in free living humans and animals over a range of conditions. Please contact me if you wish more information.
My current research examines the impact of environmental conditions and social interactions on milk production in a Scottish dairy herd. This work is in collaboration with Mackies Dairy.
I also have projects where we examine the impact of fast food and sugar sweetened beverages on the development of obesity in children and adults.
