Research and Interests
My research interests are focused on the prevention of obesity and chronic disease through physical activity and diet interventions. My current interests are, 1) to optimize physical activity during pregnancy to prevent gestational diabetes and preeclampsia, and 2) to determine the impact of exercise on the regulation of appetite including hormonal and brain responses.
