Research Interests

The Johnson Research Lab investigates metabolic adaptations to nutritional and physiological stressors. Our goal is to identify factors that promote more efficient energy metabolism following weight loss that render individuals susceptible to weight regain. To this end we link high-resolution measures of metabolic fuel metabolism with "-omics" technologies to identify adaptations to weight loss. Understanding these underlying adaptations could lead to improvements in long-term weight loss and metabolic health.
