Project description:
This Master's Research project presents a unique opportunity for an individual to investigate the effect of time restricted eating on thermoregulation.
The aim of this project is to develop an understanding of how switching to specific time restricted eating patterns from a typical circadian diet affects parameters of thermoregulation.
The successful candidate will work closely with the supervisors in a laboratory environment to characterise the physiological changes that occur when exposed to a hot environment across short transitional periods of time restricted eating.
