Hatice Cetinkaya, MS

PhD Student
University of Cincinnati
Cincinnati, Ohio, United States

Hatice Cetinkaya is a PhD student in Epidemiology program in the Department of Environmental & Public Health Sciences (DEPHS) in the College of Medicine, University of Cincinnati. She is also a Presidential Fellow at the University of Cincinnati Graduate College. Hatice holds a Bachelor of Science degree in Nutrition and Dietetics from Izmir Katip Celebi University, Izmir, Turkey. After she received her master’s degree in nutrition from the University of Cincinnati, she worked as a research associate in the Department of Environmental & Public Health Sciences in the Human Milk and Novel Therapeutics Lab (Ardythe Morrow, Principal Investigator), and an adjunct instructor for the Research Methods in Health Sciences course at the College of Allied Health Sciences.

Her research focuses on studying the effects of maternal and environmental factors on health outcomes of the infant. Since early nutrition, as a modifiable factor, has short- and long-term impacts on the offspring, she is particularly interested in human milk. Aside from being the gold standard feeding method for infants, human milk has a functional role; therefore, she is interested in investigating the associations between maternal characteristics and milk components with system biology approach. She aims to pursue a career in academia as a molecular epidemiologist focused on maternal and child health.
