PhD Studentship: Hydration, Metabolic Health and Physical Function Across Adulthood - Loughborough, United Kingdom - Loughborough University
Description
This project takes an integrative physiology approach to understand how hydration/24-h water intake influence metabolic health and physical function in young/older adults, particularly in the context of climate change/global warming.
The project will involve laboratory-based human data collection (cross-sectional or intervention studies) to understand the impact of hydration/24-h water intake on metabolic health/functional outcomes in younger/older adults. This human data collection will be accompanied by in-vitro/ex-vivo experiments to investigate relevant intracellular signalling pathways.
The Doctoral Researcher will develop skills involved in running human/exercise nutrition intervention studies, the collection and analysis of various human samples (e.g. blood, urine, saliva, and potentially muscle), measurement of physical function through various laboratory-based tests, and molecular biology techniques (e.g. RT-qPCR and western blot analysis). There may also be the opportunity to apply stable isotope methods to study water balance using deuterium oxide.
This studentship is funded by the Leicester Biomedical Research Centre which is a collaboration between Loughborough University, University Hospitals of Leicester NHS Trust and the University of Leicester. The BRC's purpose is to translate scientific breakthroughs in these areas into diagnostic tests, preventions and life-saving treatments for patients.
