Research and Teaching interests

I have a varied number of interests in human nutrition, metabolism and related sciences. I have introduced a new Special Topics Course in Advanced Topics in Obesity, and had an amazing time learning alongside my students in a wonderfully interactive, discussion based forum, in an area of emerging and crucial research and development for Canadians. 

I have a keen interest in clinical nutrition and medical nutritional therapy for disease, especially as it relates to our aging Canadian population. I enjoy teaching in the areas of enteral and parenteral nutrition support as well as acute and chronic disease management.
