i am a physician and researcher specialising in obesity, metabolism, and diabetes.

My work focuses on understanding how the gut and brain communicate, and how we can use that knowledge to create effective, science-based treatments for lasting weight loss.

🥗 Diet plays a crucial role in controlling blood sugar levels, especially for individuals with insulin resistance. In my latest lecture at the Australian Medical Association, I discussed the importance of a balanced, low-glycemic index diet to reduce fluctuations in blood sugar. 🍽️
👩‍⚕️ It's not just about what you eat but how you eat it. Small changes in your eating habits can lead to significant improvements in both weight and blood sugar regulation.

🏃‍♀️ Exercise isn’t just for weight loss—it’s a powerful tool for managing blood sugar levels! In a recent study, I explored how regular physical activity can enhance insulin sensitivity and stabilize blood sugar in those at risk of Type 2 diabetes.
🧘‍♀️ Whether it’s a brisk walk, cycling, or yoga, moving your body is key to balancing your blood sugar and boosting overall health.

🎤 It was an honour to present my recent findings at the Diabetes Research Conference 2025. We discussed cutting-edge research on the link between obesity, blood sugar, and heart health. The research is clear—managing weight is one of the most effective ways to manage and prevent diabetes.
💬 I’m excited to continue contributing to this important field and collaborate with international experts on the future of diabetes treatment.

🔬 In recent studies, I’ve been investigating the role of GLP-1 mimetics in weight loss and blood sugar control. GLP-1 helps the body regulate insulin and suppress appetite. My team has been testing new treatments to help individuals struggling with insulin resistance and obesity. The results are promising!
✨ We’re one step closer to a solution that addresses both weight management and blood sugar control in one treatment.
