About
Analiza M Silva is Adjunct Faculty Member at Pennington Biomedical Research Center-US and Assistant Professor at Faculty Human Kinetics-University of Lisbon.
She is the Research Group Leader “Functional Body Composition and Energy Regulation” focused on 4 research lines:
1) Energy balance regulation in response to physical activity/exercise/sedentary behavior and/or diet-induced weight loss interventions: metabolic and behavioral compensations;
2) Cellular and extracellular hydration in performance and health: from dilution techniques to bioelectrical impedance analysis;
3) Interaction between body composition, fitness and metabolic markers;
4) Development and validity of methodologies for assessing energy expenditure and body composition, including identification of normative values for monitoring and diagnostic purposes
