The M3 Research Group
This research group is part of the Department of Human Biology at the Faculty of Health Medicine and Life Sciences of Maastricht University. Our research group is specialised in in vivo human metabolic research, and the main fields of interest include skeletal muscle metabolism, exercise metabolism, sports and clinical nutrition, and aging.
Our research aims to increase knowledge that will enable us to define more effective exercise and nutritional interventions to improve health and functional performance in health, disease, and with aging.
Research studies investigate metabolism on a whole-body, tissue, and cellular level, with skeletal muscle as the main tissue of interest. The use of stable isotope methodology has a special interest in this group.

Research Lines
With our research we specialise in in vivo human metabolic research and this includes the following research lines:
Education
We provide education in the areas of exercise sciences, exercise physiology, substrate metabolism, sports and clinical nutrition, and human physiology in general. All staff members as well as PhD students and post-doctoral fellows actively take part in various BSc and MSc programs at the Faculty of Health Medicine and Life Sciences (FHML).
Within the MSc program Human Movement Sciences, our group coordinates the track Sports and Nutrition.
Furthermore, we are also involved in educational activities at the HAN University of Applied Sciences and contribute to or provide post-doctoral courses. See below for an overview of the different programs and courses we are involved in, with links to the program websites where more information is provided on the various courses.
