Background

Marc is a Senior Research Fellow in the School of Medical and Health Sciences within the Nutrition and Health Innovation Research Institute (NHIRI). He established and leads the Falls Free Future Program within NHIRI and is the Deputy Lead for the Disorders of Mineralisation Research Group at ECU. Marc currently holds Fellowships from the Royal Perth Hospital Research Foundation and the Future Health Research and Innovation Fund (Department of Health, WA). Marc’s research program examines the role of nutrition, physical activity and its impact on disease progression, more specifically musculoskeletal function and structure. Another key interest is the nexus between cardiovascular and musculoskeletal health. Collectively, his research specifically targets reducing falls and associated injuries (e.g. fracture) in older populations.

Marc received his PhD (Deans List) from The University of Western Australia in March 2015 where he studied the effect of exercise on inflammation and iron metabolism. He is an accredited Exercise and Sport Scientist (Level 2) and registered Nutritionist. Previously, Marc worked in industry as a Sports Physiologist at the Western Australian Institute of Sport. Marc’s musculoskeletal research program is based at the Royal Perth Hospital Research Foundation and is supported by his expertise in the design, coordination and conduct of clinical trials, as well as advanced biostatistics specific to large cohort studies. Marc currently serves on Council for the Australian and New Zealand Bone and Mineral Society (ANZBMS) and the Publications Committee for Exercise and Sports Science Australia (ESSA). Marc is part of the Australia and New Zealand Society for Sarcopenia and Frailty Research (ANZSSFR) Taskforce which operationalised a clinical definition for sarcopenia currently used nationally.
