Nathan Denton obtained his PhD in 2018 from the University of Oxford. In his doctoral research, he explored how fat tissue from distinct parts of the body behave differently and this relates to overall health. This involved examining cell biology, growth factors, and the extracellular matrix as well as genetic and epigenetic factors. Nathan has published peer-reviewed articles in scientific journals such as Molecular Metabolism, International Journal of Obesity, Nature Communications, and Diabetes.
