Gloria Leung PhD confirmation, "The development of recommendations for healthy eating and lifestyle in shift workers", 14 February

All staff and students are invited to Gloria Leung's PhD confirmation seminar.

14 February, 10am, BASE Facility, Level 1, 264 Ferntree Gully Rd, Notting Hill

Synopsis: Shift workers are at increased risks of cardiovascular disease and type-2 diabetes. Their night time eating habits may be a contributing factor, as it forces the body to metabolise food when they are supposed to be asleep. This thesis explores if manipulation of meal timing can reduce shift workers' metabolic disease risks. 


Supervisors: A/Prof Maxine Bonham, Dr Kate Huggins
