Dr Tania Romano Stasis Lecturer, Human Physiology, Physiology Anatomy & Microbiology
My research interests lie within the field of the fetal programming of adult diseases. In particular, I am interested in the effects of high fat diets and obesity during pregnancy, and how this can impact on long term offspring health.
