Professor in Exercise and Muscle Physiology

At the Department of Movement Sciences of the Group of Biomedical Sciences at KU Leuven, a full-time academic position is available within the Exercise and Muscle Physiology Research Group.
The Department of Movement Sciences aims to further strengthen this research group through the appointment of a third full-time academic member with complementary expertise in fundamental and mechanistic research, with clear relevance to exercise and muscle physiology.

The Exercise and Muscle Physiology Research Group studies how exercise training, nutrition, physical (in)activity, and environmental stressors affect performance and health, with particular attention to skeletal muscle adaptation and integrative physiology. Its research spans fundamental, translational, clinical, and applied human research lines, across models and populations from cells and animals to clinical populations and athletes.

The research group combines laboratory and translational expertise with infra...
