Biography and Research Information
OverviewAI-generated summary
Justin Roberts' research investigates the physiological and metabolic responses to diet and exercise, with a particular focus on athletic performance and cardiometabolic health. His work has explored sex differences in ultra-endurance physiology and the role of exercise-associated genes in fitness. Roberts has also examined novel inflammatory biomarkers, such as glycoprotein acetyls, for early cardiovascular risk assessment in young individuals.
His research group has investigated the impact of dietary interventions, including decaffeinated green tea extract and carbohydrate manipulation, on fat oxidation, body composition, and cardio-metabolic markers in overweight, recreationally active individuals. Furthermore, his work has delved into the stability of the gut microbiome in relation to endurance performance and the efficacy of home-use metabolic devices for assessing dietary responses. Roberts has also conducted systematic reviews and meta-analyses on topics including vitamin D supplementation in diverse ethnic groups during the COVID-19 pandemic and the effects of protein supplementation on concurrent exercise training adaptations.
