sciencedirect.com/science/articl…. Exciting findings from my doctoral work! We directly measured sulfur amino acid requirements in healthy pregnant mothers & our findings suggest that requirements are LOWER than current DRI recommendations (first amino acid to have this finding)
Very excited to announce that on Wednesday, June 26th I successfully defended my PhD Dissertation. My defence represented the culmination of the last 5 years of my work in pregnancy nutrition. Looking forward to my next chapter as Dr. Kerri Scherbinsky
Our lovely @MaggieWooK presented her work on Maternal Dietary Diversity in Sub-Saharan Africa at @CNPRMadmin#PCHRM today, a talk that was well received and prompted many questions from the audience. Well done, Maggie! @BCCHRTrainees
