Carlos Alberto Celis-Morales, BHF Cardiovascular Research Centre, Institute of Cardiovascular and Medical Sciences, University of Glasgow

Carlos works as Associate Researchers at the BHF Glasgow Cardiovascular Research Centre in the Institute of Cardiovascular and Medical Science at the University of Glasgow. He is currently part of two multicentre research studies. The "STAND-UP" study, funded by the Medical Research Council, aims to investigate whether reduced sitting time through regular bouts of non-sedentary activity improves cardio-metabolic and cognitive health in older adults from white European and South Asian ethnic backgrounds. This project is a collaboration between the Universities of Leicester, Loughborough, Bedfordshire and Glasgow. In addition, Carlos has recently joined the research group headed by Prof Jill Pell working on the UK Biobank. UK Biobank is a prospective, population cohort study of 502,000 participants designed to determine the lifestyle, environmental and genetic factors that predispose to adult chronic diseases
