Are you interested in presenting or joining a team for an @ACSMNews session at next year's meeting? Send me a DM! We're hoping to submit multiple sessions on topic areas including: skeletal muscle, obesity/AOMs, military populations, and extreme environments research.
STARTING XI | Luxembourg v Ireland Heimir Hallgrímsson has made five changes for the friendly tonight as Killian Phillips makes his first start for Ireland 👌 Six years after his first call-up in May 2019, Max O'Leary makes his first appearance, congratulations Max 💚🇮🇪
We are looking for someone with a background in physiology / nutrition and who has an interest in working on applied projects across Defence. Come and join the team! civilservicejobs.service.gov.uk/csr/index.cgi?…
Looking forward to chairing this session.
Nearly there, talk 1 ready #ACSM25

Our latest paper now out in JBMR. We explored the relationship between vitamin D metabolites and tibial microstructure, and the effect of vitamin D supplementation on adaptive bone formation in military training. academic.oup.com/jbmr/advance-a…
More science! After completing a blood draw (we are our own phlebotomists up here), we spun the tubes in a centrifuge and then put them in the MELFI (Minus Eighty Degree Laboratory Freezer for @Space_Station) for later return to the ground. This study is looking at bone…
Job Alert - 4-year Post-Doctoral Research Associate (MSKI-PREVENT) Come and join us at the University of Bath at we start this new research programme. See adverts below: lnkd.in/eY2F3F3V lnkd.in/eTpnXiCH
Join myself and @VietDinhSci for the next @APSEEPSection Coffee Chat with @gabegiersch and @BM_Roberts_SkM as we discuss life at a DOD lab and how science is done in a military setting. 👇 Post questions in the comments for our guests. @APSPhysiology @ACSM_Military @ACSM_EOPIG
A proud moment to finally have this study published @thomas_j_oleary @JulieGreeves. Challenging and brilliant to run in equal measures. Here a 1000 mg calcium supplement is protective of calcium and bone metabolism in women during load carriage. academic.oup.com/jbmr/advance-a…
Very proud of our latest paper in JBMR. This study was TOUGH but luckily we have @C_V_Coombs! Here we show that a 1000 mg calcium supplement is protective of calcium and bone metabolism in women during load carriage. academic.oup.com/jbmr/article-a…
Superb!

This is timely after a great week of chatting bone and iron at #ACSM24. Our latest paper on iron and bone @JulieGreeves. Iron status is associated with tibial structure and vitamin D metabolites in healthy young men - ScienceDirect sciencedirect.com/science/articl…
The BONE IG meeting @ACSM is on tonight between 1800 and 1930, Room 304. We have an action-packed agenda, including a ‘for/against’ motion on ‘Remodelling is the primary adaptive physiologic response of bone to exercise’ with the brilliant @Julie_MHughes and @eimeardol.
