معرفی
Dr. Kristina Anevska serves as a Casual Academic in the Department of Microbiology, Anatomy, Physiology & Pharmacology at La Trobe University, specializing in reproductive physiology and developmental origins of health and disease. Her research focuses on maternal exercise interventions, placental adaptations, and transgenerational effects of growth restriction using rat models.
Her primary research interests span Reproductive Physiology, Developmental Origins of Health and Disease, and Exercise Physiology, with specific expertise in maternal exercise effects on pregnancy outcomes, placental adaptations to stress, and transgenerational bone and metabolic health. Her work frequently examines sex-specific responses and interactions with high-fat diets in growth-restricted pregnancy models.
Analysis of her 15 most recent publications reveals consistent focus on rat pregnancy models investigating how maternal exercise modifies outcomes in growth-restricted pregnancies. Key trends include placental mTOR signaling, IGF-system regulation, microbiome alterations in gestational diabetes, and transgenerational transmission of bone deficits. Her research demonstrates particular attention to sex-specific adaptations and timing of exercise interventions.
Dr. Anevska maintains active research collaborations with prominent scientists including Wlodek ME, Briffa JF, Cuffe JSM, and Mangwiro YTM across multiple publications. Her work appears in high-impact journals such as The Journal of Physiology, Placenta, and FASEB Journal, with significant citation impact in developmental physiology fields.
