Our lab is recruiting for a 6 month study investigating bone and inflammation is young athletes. Only 4 brief visits to our lab on Brock University Campus and we ask during the 16-weeks between visits 2 and 4 that you consume dairy protein (greek yogurt or whey protein) daily. Everything is provided at no cost.

Our lab is recruiting participants (untrained males, 30-45yr) to participate in a 6 month bulk and cut exercise and diet program. For more information, or to sign up to participate, email Anthony Giannopoulos (MSc Student) at ag22ts@brocku.ca

*Participants must be able to visit the Brock University campus for lab visits

Giti Borzooeian holds two Master's degrees, one in Science, Applied Health Science, Kinesiology from Brock University, and one in Biochemistry from Esfahan University, Iran.
A Bachelor's degree in Medical Laboratory Science from Shiraz Medical Science University, Iran.
Her recent research investigated the effect of high and low-impact high-intensity exercise on myokine and osteokine responses in young adult females. She has also previously researched stem cell therapy in cartilage repair in arthritis.
In 2013, Giti collaborated with Northeastern University, Boston, USA in two projects "Bioconjugation of lysozyme on carbon nanotubes“ The outcome of this research offers a new perspective on using bio-molecules for cell and drug delivery. Since graduating Giti has been working as a research assistant at Brock University.
