In this episode, Early Career Editor Kevin C. Klatt, PhD, RD speaks with Briana Stephenson, PhD (she/her/hers), an Assistant Professor in the Departments of Biostatistics at the Harvard TH Chan School of Public Health, about her recent publication, âRacial and ethnic heterogeneity in diets of low-income adult females in the United States: results from National Health and Nutrition Examination Surveys from 2011 to 2018â in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition. Dr Stephenson discusses her research on robust profile clustering as an extension of latent class models to define dietary patterns in population subgroups, focusing in this analysis on low-income female adults to identify racial and ethnic differences in dietary patterns.

In this episode, Early Career Editor Kevin C. Klatt, PhD, RD speaks with Harry Jarrett, PhD, Helene McNulty, PhD, RD, MRIA and Mary Ward, PhD, RD about their recent publication, âVitamin B6 and riboflavin, their metabolic interaction and relationship with MTHFR genotype, in adults aged 18-102 yearsâ in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition. The authors discuss the rationale for looking at Vitamin B2 and B6 status marker interactions, including MTHFR genotype, and provide epidemiological evidence in support of riboflavin functional status (the erythrocyte glutathione reductase activation coefficient or EGRAC) being a determinant of Vitamin B6 (PLP) status.
