PROFESSOR NEIL WALSH

Neil is a professor at the School of Sport and Exercise Sciences at Liverpool John Moores University. Prior to this he spent 19 years at Bangor University where his team has produced leading research on: nutritional strategies to avoid immune suppression and infection; practical strategies to acclimate to the heat; and, new techniques for non-invasive biomonitoring of athletes and soldiers. Neil has published widely in international journals, co-authored a textbook in Exercise Immunology and led a highly cited consensus statement on exercise and immunity.

Dr Cas Fuchs

Dr. Cas Fuchs is a postdoctoral research fellow at the department of Human Biology at Maastricht University Medical Center+. Cas also performed his PhD within the same department, where he investigated the impact of several strategies (such as carbohydrate and protein intake as well as cooling and heating of the muscles) on post-exercise muscle recovery.
Currently, Cas is primarily performing research focusing on body composition methods, the non-invasive assessment of liver and muscle glycogen as well as the impact of cooling and heating strategies on muscle physiology.
