Cecil, Jo - University of St Andrews

个人简介

I graduated from the University of Cambridge with a BA (Hons), MA degree in Biological Anthropology in 1993 and then undertook a post-graduate teaching qualification in Biological Sciences (PGCE) from the University of Cambridge in 1994. I gained my PhD from the Faculty of Medicine at the University of Sheffield, where I conducted human research into the role of gastrointestinal lipid on eating behaviour. Following this, I moved to Monell Chemical Senses Center, Philadelphia, USA in 1999 to take up a post doc position. There, I investigated gastrointestinal mechanisms underlying the control of food intake using animal models in collaboration with researchers in the Department of Psychology at the University of Pennsylvania. In 2000, I took up a research position in the Department of Psychology at the University of Dundee to conduct research in pre-pubertal children, investigating synergy between genotype & behavioural phenotype in the maintenance of energy balance. In 2004 I was appointed as a Lecturer at the University of St Andrews.

研究领域

My research interests include the short-term biopsychological controls of appetite, eating behaviour and obesity. My research has focussed on the contribution of and interaction between signals arising from different areas of the gastrointestinal tract in the control of ingestive behaviour. More recently, my research interests have centred on the relationship between genotype and behavioural phenotype in the maintenance of child energy balance and obesity.
