FUEGO (Global Network of Excellence for Research on Adipose Tissue Plasticity and Human Thermogenesis) is an FP7-funded project, of which FAME Lab is the coordinator.
The aim of this project is to investigate the effects of exercise training and menthol consumption on human white adipose tissue phenotype and identify putative relationships with metabolism and body weight regulation.The other partners in this network are:

– George Metsios, Department of Sport Science, University of Wolverhampton (UK)
– Nair Honda Kawashita, Instituto de Ciências Exatas e da Terra, Universidade Federal de Mato Grosso (Brazil)
– Liliya Nadolnik, Institute of Bioorganic Chemistry, National Academy of Sciences of Belarus (Belarus)
The programme ran from 01/09/2013 to 31/08/2017
