Current Research
The FoodMASTER Initiative teaches math and science concepts through food and nutrition. The goal of this NIH SEPA grant (Science Education Partnership Award) is to support STEM learning for underserved, minority youth through informal learning environments. Led by PI, Dr. Melani Duffrin(Northern Illinois University), this project also works to create a Deep South Network with collaborators from Illinois, Alabama, Mississippi, and North and South Carolina. As the Georgia partner, my work with the FoodMASTER curriculum focuses on programming with middle to high school youth within the Boys and Girls Club setting in the Metro Atlanta area.
As state Coordinator for EFNEP (Expanded Food and Nutrition Education Program) my work focuses on both adult and youth nutrition programming and curriculum for low income families, collaborating with other Extension and Department colleagues (i.e. SNAP-Ed, 4H), and developing a variety of community partnerships throughout the state for nutrition, health, and wellness.
Other areas of research and research interests include utilizing my clinical and community nutrition background to develop programs and interventions for overweight youth and their families, particularly in underserved populations. My research program also focuses on translating the science of energy balance and metabolism into the community and clinical setting not only through nutrition assessment with indirect calorimetry, but in nutrition education so as to help youth learn nutrition concepts while also promoting dietary behavior change
