University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus
Dr. Emily Hill is a Postdoctoral Fellow and Registered Dietitian Nutritionist at the University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus. Dr. Hill’s research interest centers on the need to more precisely define the relationship between dietary intakes and cardiometabolic health within the context of obesity and cancer. Her goal is to design, optimize, evaluate, and implement sustainable behavioral interventions to improve health and enhance longevity. Her projects span the translational research spectrum, from the design and integration of nutrition interventions into established clinical programs to the evaluation of clinical and biochemical indicators of health and alterations in the epigenome, proteome, metabolome, and microbiome after controlled trials. Dr. Hill recently completed an NIDDK T32 Nutrition Research Postdoctoral Fellowship for her "foodomics" work and an American Heart Association Postdoctoral Fellowship for evaluation of diet quality and ultra-processed food intakes during behavioral weight management. She is currently an NCI K99 awardee studying multi-omics integration for evaluation during optimization a nutrition intervention in cancer survivorship. She will be presenting two abstracts at ASN’s Nutrition 2024, where she is also competing in the Postdoctoral Research Award Competition.
