I am Dr. Timea Teglas, and welcome to my website!
Alapvetően kutató biológus vagyok, emellett táplálkozási tanácsadóként, sport mentál coachként és edzőként szenvedélyem az egészséges életmód és a testmozgás. Célom, hogy segítsek másoknak megismerni és elérni egy egészségesebb életmódot, amely út során személyre szabott tanácsokkal, edzéstervvel, vagy mentálisan támogatlak. Bízom benne, hogy együtt elérhetjük az egészségesebb és boldogabb életet!
More about me
I graduated as a Biologist-Bioanalyst at College of Nyíregyháza and later, I completed my studies in Molecular Genetics, Cellular and Developmental Biology at the University of Debrecen. During my studies, I embarked on my research career in the field of genetics and molecular biology. My university years were enriched by my multiple professional kickboxing championships. After completing my studies, I worked in the field of neuroscience at elite research institutions in Hungary, including Semmelweis University and the Institute of Experimental Medicine, Hungarian Academy of Sciences. In 2019, I obtained my PhD degree in Sports Sciences at the Hungarian University of Sports Science. At this point, my research focus shifted towards the brain, exercise, and nutrition.
Simultaneously with my research, I continuously expanded my knowledge in the fields of nutrition and exercise, primarily through international training programs. From 2020, I spent three years in the United States, in Miami, where I worked as a Postdoctoral Associate at the Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Institute, University of Miami. During this time, my research primarily focused on brain research, specifically related to the Zika virus and nutrition. I have presented my research findings at numerous conferences and published them in international journals. In parallel with my research work, I also guided the nutrition and physical preparation of several Hungarian amateur and professional combat sports athletes, for both domestic and international competitions.
