Biografia

Dr Mueez U-Din has advanced degrees in Medical Imaging and a doctorate (PhD) in Clinical Physiology and Nuclear Medicine from the University of Turku, Finland.

Tutkimus

Dr Mueez U-Din’s research focuses on understanding the biology and molecular pathways controlling adipose tissue metabolism in humans. He examines how the hormones and signalling molecules regulate metabolic effects in fat depots. His work aims to contribute to the development of new preventative strategies and treatments for metabolic diseases, including obesity, type 2 diabetes, and cardiovascular complications. He has a keen interest in utilizing and optimizing medical imaging methods for metabolic health research.
