Professor Michael Müller

University of East Anglia Norwich/UK

Expertisemolecular nutrition related to lipid homeostasis, nutrigenomics and nutritional systems biology. Molecular mechanisms underlying genome-wide effects of foods (specific bioactive components or nutrients) on metabolic health and plasticity.

Professor Michael Müller is Director of the Norwich Research Park Food and Health Alliance and a Professor of Nutrigenomics and Systems Nutrition. He is a renowned expert in the area of molecular nutrition related to lipid homeostasis, nutrigenomics and nutritional systems biology and his work is focused on the molecular mechanisms underlying genome-wide effects of foods (specific bioactive components or nutrients) on immuno-metabolic health and plasticity. Professor Muller was a member of the editorial boards of numerous journals, i.e. “BMC Genomics” (associate editor), "European Journal of Nutrition" (section editor "Nutrigenomics") and “PLOS One” (academic editor), visiting professor at Nanjing Agricultural University and (co)author of more than 230 peer-reviewed publications with more than 10500 citations. As promoter he has supervised 24 PhD students, has an H-factor of 59 and is a member of the “Faculty of 1000” (Biology/Physiology).
