Rate My Professor Natalie Colson

Her research interests focus on molecular genetics, including migraine susceptibility genes like MTHFR C677T and estrogen receptor polymorphisms, as well as nutrigenomics investigating dietary polyphenols' effects on inflammation, obesity, adipokines, thrombotic risks from prolonged sitting, and probiotics' impact on stress and depression. Key publications include 'MTHFR Polymorphism and the homocysteine lowering effects of folate supplementation' (2009, cited by 174), 'The Genetics of Menstrual Migraine' (Colson et al.), 'Anthocyanin supplementation inhibits secretion of pro-inflammatory cytokines in overweight and obese individuals' (Vugic et al., 2020, cited by 47), 'Anthocyanin Supplementation Alleviates Antithrombotic Risk Associated with Prolonged Sitting' (Gaiz et al., 2022), 'Potential of anthocyanin as an anti-inflammatory agent: a human clinical trial on type 2 diabetic, diabetic at-risk and healthy adults' (2021), and 'Creating group work-integrated learning experiences for non-clinical health students' (Shilton et al., 2024). She is a Senior Fellow of the Higher Education Academy, with her publications cited over 1,500 times on ResearchGate.
