Are you John Hawley? Claim this pageExercise physiologist, MacKillop Distinguished Professor and director of the Centre for Human Metabolism and Performance at the Mary MacKillop Institute, Australian Catholic University in Melbourne. A leading researcher on how exercise and diet interact at the molecular level.
His lab studies the molecular basis of training adaptation and how manipulating carbohydrate availability and meal timing around exercise ('train-low' strategies) shapes fat and carbohydrate metabolism, mitochondrial signaling, and insulin action. His work informs both athletic performance and lifestyle treatment of obesity and type 2 diabetes.
Exercise and diet are one signal — the timing and composition of food around training rewires muscle metabolism, and that interaction is a lever for both performance and metabolic disease.
