Prof. Ellen Blaak is Professor of Human Biology at the Department of Human Biology since 2007 and is Chair of the Department of Human Biology. Her research focuses on the role of disturbances in fatty acid metabolism and interorgan cross-talk (gut-adipose tissue-muscle metabolism) in the aetiology of obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus (>350 publ) as well as the impact of nutritional or lifestyle intervention to reverse these changes. She is member of the Nutrition committee of the Dutch Health Council and of several advisory board/grant evaluation committees. She obtained funding from among others the Netherlands Organisation for Scientific research/Dutch Diabetes Research Foundation/EU as a PI for 30 research projects and has supervised more than 30 PhD theses.

Dr. Begoña de Cuevillas García has completed a Bachelor's degree in Human Nutrition and Dietetics (UCM) and a Master's degree in Food, Nutrition, and Metabolism (UNAV). Additionally, she has a PhD in Nutrition, Food Science and Physiology, focusing her research on studying the different risk factors accompanying obesity and associated comorbidities, such as dietary and sleep patterns, physical activity, gut microbiota, and/or quality of life, in both pediatric and adult populations, in order to facilitate the personalization and precise management of overweight and excessive adiposity. Additionally, their participation in projects such as the Childhood Obesity Risk Assessment Longitudinal Study (CORALs) demonstrates a commitment to applied clinical research that can have a direct impact on public health. The originality of their research lies in the exploration of new avenues to address urgent public health issues, such as obesity and its associated complications, using health determinants like intestinal microbiota. Furthermore, the credibility of their research is reflected not only in publication in scientific journals but also in presentations at both national and international conferences.
