## Overview

### Background

Dr Shelley Keating is an Accredited Exercise Physiologist (AEP) and an Associate Professor in Clinical Exercise Physiology at the School of Human Movement and Nutrition Sciences, University of Queensland. With a strong grounding in exercise metabolism and body composition, Dr Keating leads a program of research aimed at changing the way we prioritise, access and deliver lifestyle intervention for people with obesity, metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) and type 2 diabetes. Dr Keating holds qualifications in clinical exercise physiology BExSciRehab (Hon-1); MExSpSci (Clinical Exercise Science); PhD (Exercise Physiology) and over 18 years’ experience as an AEP developing, delivering, and disseminating exercise interventions in adults with obesity and related chronic diseases.

### Research impacts

Dr Keating has an established research profile that is delivering impact for patients, clinicians and funders. Her research has led to the development of safe and feasible exercise programs that generate significant improvement in the cardiometabolic health of individuals with MASLD and related chronic disease. Drawing on these findings, Dr Keating has developed national and international exercise guidelines for MASLD. Her research has led to a paradigm shift in how exercise is prioritised in MASLD management and has been adopted into exercise prescription recommendations in 16 international guidelines for MASLD management across 13 countries.

Dr Keating's research had found a lack of awareness, uptake, and sustainability of exercise for MASLD management. Dr Keating recently pioneered the integration of lived-experience experts in MASLD research and is committed to inform research by liaising with lived-experience experts to support people with MASLD and related chronic disease to exercise regularly to benefit their health.
