Known forResearch on nutrition and reproductive health in women of reproductive age

Christina Johnson is a researcher affiliated with the University of New Hampshire in Durham, New Hampshire. Her published work focuses on nutrition, micronutrient status, and reproductive health outcomes among women of reproductive age, with a particular focus on populations in Southern India.[1]

Research

According to Semantic Scholar, Johnson has published 22 papers that have collectively been cited 130 times, giving her an h-index of 6.[2] Her research has examined topics including vitamin B12 status, vitamin D status, iron status, choline metabolism, folate concentrations related to neural tube defect prevention, and arsenic exposure in relation to one-carbon metabolism, largely through population-based biomarker surveys of women of reproductive age in Southern India.[3] She has also studied the acceptability and use of quadruple-fortified salt as an intervention for anemia and birth defect prevention in the same population.[4]

National Institutes of Health records list projects associated with the name Christina Johnson at the Medical University of South Carolina totaling $302,000, including work titled "Acid Ceramidase in Alzheimers Disease" and "Identification of essential biomarkers in the polyploid cancer cell lifecycle."[5]
