🚨New 📄 in @ExpPhysiol 🚨 🩸Blood collection tubes matter! 📊 17β-estradiol & progesterone concn were higher in EDTA plasma vs serum ⚠️Researchers should adjust for higher plasma levels to ensure appropriate classification of menstrual cycle status doi.org/10.1113/EP0924…
Delighted to see our opinion paper ‘Gut Feelings on Short-Chain Fatty Acids to Regulate Respiratory Health’ published in @Trends_Endo_Met ✨ We highlight the potential of SCFAs to reduce the incidence/severity of viral infections in humans 🤧💡
🚨 NEW PUBLICATION 🚨 The Mass Sportrometry team have been at it again as @Rowland_SN leads our latest publication on the promise for SCFAs in respiratory health. Big thanks to @SCFattyChris, @SinganayagamLab, and John Halliwill. tinyurl.com/yn67sxbj
We’re proud to officially launch our groundbreaking Women in Sport Research and Innovation Hub – a multi-million-pound Hub dedicated to transforming the landscape of women’s sport. 🎉💪 Launched by @Steph_Peacock, and in partnership with @Vitality_UK, the Hub will lead…
We’re proud to announce we’ve been crowned best in the world for sports-related subjects for the 9th year running by @TopUnis! ⭐️💜 Find out more: lboro.uk/3xXJJU2
Oral contraceptive pill phase does not influence muscle protein synthesis or myofibrillar proteolysis at rest or in response to resistance exercise pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40013418/ Great work from @drlaurencs1
Considerations & future directions = what we routinely account for in our work @ORRECO1 @fitrwoman -Fatigue, mood disturbances, pain & confidence could influence training/adaptations -Align training with how women feel (energized/fatigued) during MC phases physoc.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1113/JP…

Fantastic to finally have this published from @SCFattyChris thesis. We saw that serum concs of SCFAs peaked by 60 min and returned to baseline by 120 min following oral ingestion of SCFAs in dietary capsules. Useful info for future supplementation studies! pubs.rsc.org/en/content/art…

My first #ACSM24 ✅🤩 Great to meet some new people and attend some interesting sessions! Time to explore Boston before heading home ✈️


Great to be involved in this session with @easto82, @JasonDavidAllen and @PorcelliSimone #ACSM24 🇺🇸. Watch this space for results from our lab (PI @exphystevo) @LboroSSEHS comparing M/F responses to acute dietary nitrate supplementation 🔜 📑
Yesterday I had the opportunity to present our work at ACSM 2024 meeting. What an amazing experience! ☺️🥰 Honored to shared the stage with colleagues and friends as @JasonDavidAllen, @easto82 & @Rowland_SN @ACSMNews
Looking forward to an enjoyable few days at @ACSMNews conference in Boston. Today, I will share the stage with @JasonDavidAllen @PorcelliSimone & @Rowland_SN to deliver a symposium on the effects of biological sex on the response to dietary nitrate supplementation Room 202 3:45pm
Post doc data collection ✅ 36 participants, 288 lab visits, some DOMS🦵and plenty of fun👇. Results to follow on whether 8 wks of probiotics influenced the gut microbiome, cycling TT performance and recovery from 100 drop jumps…🧐👀


Our latest paper is now online ahead of print in @japplphysiol 👀 Ingestion of nitrate-rich beetroot juice attenuated the rise in systolic blood pressure observed following 3 h in a cool environmental chamber at rest 🥶 🔗 doi.org/10.1152/japplp…
