Dr Morgan is a Senior Lecturer in Human Nutrition and Metabolism. He has a broad range of interests in physiology, nutrition and metabolism. Broadly speaking, his current primary interests are on the integration of exercise and diet in-vivo across the lifespan, with a predominant focus on protein metabolism in athletes and musculoskeletal deterioration in compromised patient settings. His passion lies within human research that incorporates the use of nutritional and pharmacological interventions as well as exercise training, to improve understanding of the molecular and cellular pathways underpinning alterations with exercise and disease, identifying how exercise and nutrition can be used to optimize health and performance.
