Ageing
Dr Benjamin Barry
    
School of Medical Sciences - Exercise Physiology Program
Statement of Interests:
The broad aim of my research is to understand the physiology of the nervous system involved in the control of movement, and to determine how this system changes with ageing, injury and disease.

Dr David Simar
    
School of Medical Sciences - Exercise Physiology Program
Statement of Interests:
My research interests are mainly focused on the characterisation of metabolic dysfunctions in the immune system and skeletal muscles as well as the critical role played by inflammation in the development of those alterations in metabolic and immune conditions.

Dr George Smythe
    
School of Medical Sciences - Department of Physiology
Statement of Interests:
Neurodegenerative diseases of aging such as Alzheimer's Disease are associated with oxidative and free radical-induced damage to DNA, proteins, and energy metabolism in the CNS, Of particular interest are diagnostic markers of this damage and the role of anti-oxidants, radical scavengers and metal chelators in attenuating the damage. Collaborative work with neuroscientists at St Vincent's and Prince of Wales Hospitals and Monash University is investigating Alzheimer's and other demeting diseases, Other collaborations with neuroscientists in the UK is investigating malaria-induced brain dysfunction.
