About the expert

Focus: Insulin resistance and metabolic health

Professor of Translational Molecular Medicine at the University of Edinburgh and a board-certified physician specializing in metabolic health and rare metabolic disorders. Author of 100+ papers and a mainstream academic authority on insulin resistance. Notably measured and evidence-grounded: cautions against demonizing insulin, stresses that BMI is the wrong focus (complications matter more), and flags where large-trial evidence is thinner than personal conviction.
