About me

  • Hi! Callum here from Scotland!

    I have a background in cell biology as well as nutrition and now focus on physical activity and health.

    I am passionate about physical activity and eating a healthy diet. I
    thoroughly enjoy playing sports, running and training in the gym. I also like
    to eat a well-balanced diet but am a foodie at heart and love to eat food
    from all around the world.

Research

  • The first part of my PhD research will be investigating the associations between
    time spent in physical activity, sleep and sedentary behaviour and various
    non-communicable diseases.

    The second part of my research will investigate the feasibility of a mHEALTH digital service
    that aims to promote healthy lifestyle behaviours in different populations

    My research covers understanding the relationships between
    lifestyle behaviours and health, health promotion
    and addressing important social determinants of health.

Teaching

  • Lectured in the subject area of physical activity and health in the Nutrition science master's programme at Karolinska Institutet.
