Commenting on his award Matthew said:
“I wouldn’t be able to do what I do without the help/assistance of my colleagues in the Residential Life Team, Warwick Accommodation and Wellbeing Support Services. Although I appear to have been singled out for this award but, I see it as a reflection of all the help, patience and care my colleagues have shown of the (many) years I have been at the University.”
Professor Kumar is a clinical endocrinologist by background with 22 years’ experience as a Consultant Physician in the NHS whose academic career has seen him publish 240 papers and 6 books on a range of research areas including adipocyte biology, whole body metabolism.
