Graham Burdge

Graham Burdge is a researcher at the University of Southampton, affiliated with the Nutritional Sciences department. He specializes in investigating the interplay between polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) biosynthesis and T lymphocyte function, particularly focusing on metabolic pathways and their implications in immunology and nutrition.

His research is conducted within the Plants and Food Security research group, collaborating with experts such as Professor Philip Calder. Key projects include studying how exogenous fatty acids influence T cell metabolism and function across different cell types and life stages. This work integrates lipid biochemistry, immunology, and nutritional science to explore metabolic regulation in immune cells.

Burdge's publications highlight advancements in understanding fatty acid partitioning, metabolic pathways, and their role in T cell biology. His research contributes to broader discussions on nutritional strategies to modulate immune function through dietary lipids.
