Marie Dunford, Ph.D., R.D., has been involved in sports nutrition since the mid-1980's. In 1985, while a faculty member at California State University, Fresno, she created the curriculum for an upper-division course entitled Nutrition and the Athlete. She taught the course for 16 years, during which time she interacted directly with thousands of student athletes. This direct exposure to nutrition and exercise science majors and NCAA Division I athletes helped her develop an understanding of how students learn and the sports nutrition topics most difficult for students to master. In addition to "Nutrition for Sport and Exercise," Dr. Dunford has written three other books and several online sports nutrition courses for nutrition and exercise professionals. Now retired, she enjoys travel, tennis, quilting and spending time with her husband, children and grandchildren. J. Andrew Doyle, Ph.D., FACSM, is associate professor emeritus of exercise physiology at Georgia State University. He has taught exercise physiology, exercise testing and fitness assessment and exercise programming at the undergraduate and graduate level for over 35 years at California State University, Fresno and Georgia State University, where he was the director of the Applied Physiology Laboratory and department chair in the Department of Kinesiology and Health. Dr. Doyle received a B.S. in Zoology from Clemson University, an M.S. in Exercise Science from Georgia State University and a doctorate in Exercise Physiology from the Ohio State University. His research interests include carbohydrate metabolism and exercise and the role of physical activity, exercise and fitness in health. He has conducted, published and presented numerous research studies with cyclists, runners and triathletes and has extensive experience testing elite athletes from cycling, running, gymnastics, rowing, canoe and kayak and basketball. Dr. Doyle is a Fellow of the American College of Sports Medicine.
