Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Justin Roberts studies physiological adaptations to exercise and nutrition, with a focus on endurance performance, body composition, and metabolic health. His work investigates the role of dietary factors, such as decaffeinated green tea extract and carbohydrate periodization, on physiological responses and athletic performance. Roberts also examines the impact of dietary supplements, including protein and vitamin D, on exercise adaptations and health outcomes.

His research extends to understanding sex differences in physiological responses to ultra-endurance sports and the genetic influences on fitness components. Roberts has also explored novel inflammatory biomarkers associated with cardiovascular risk in young adults and the stability of gut microbiota in relation to endurance performance. His recent publications include systematic reviews and meta-analyses on the efficacy of protein supplementation and the impact of exercise-associated genes on fitness. He also investigates the accuracy of metabolic devices in response to dietary changes.

Roberts has a h-index of 25 and has published 199 works, accumulating over 2,157 citations. He collaborates with researchers at Arkansas State University, including Mohammad A. Alam and Robert C. Shields. Roberts leads a research group and maintains an active lab website.
