Nutrition Research Methodologies

A new book in the acclaimed Nutrition Society Textbook Series, Nutrition Research Methodologies addresses the rapidly advancing field of nutrition research. It covers the diverse methodologies required for robust nutritional research to ensure thorough understanding of key concepts, both for students at undergraduate and postgraduate levels and for scientists working in nutrition research.Combining theory with practical application, Nutrition Research Methodologies addresses both traditional research methods and new technologies, and focuses on a range of complex topics, including energy compensation, nutrient–gene interactions and metabolic adaptation. It also considers statistical issues as well as application of data to policy development.Provides the reader with the required scientific basics of nutrition research in the context of a systems and health approachWritten specifically to meet the needs of individuals involved in nutrition researchCombines the viewpoints of world–leading nutrition experts from academia and research with practical applicationsAccompanied by a companion website with a range of self–assessment material (www.wiley.com/go/lovegrove/nutritionresearch) INDICE: 1) Nature, Purpose and Implications of Research in NutritionAlan Jackson, Stephen A Wootton, Martin Wiseman.2) Study Design: Population Based StudiesJanet Cade and Jayne Hutchinson.3) Study Design: Intervention StudiesJayne V Woodside, Robert W Welch, Chris C Patterson and Michelle C McKinley.4) Methods to Determine Dietary IntakeNadia Slimani, Heinz Freisling, Anne–Kathrin Illner and Inge Huybrechts.5) Food CompositionBarbara Burlingame and Ruth Charrondiere.6) Biomarkers of IntakeGunter Kuhnle.7) Methods of Data AnalysisGraham Horgan.8) Considerations when Including Ethnically Diverse Population Groups in Nutrition ResearchMaria J Maynard.9) Use of Biobanks in Nutrition ResearchKurt Zatloukal, Pieter van t Veer, Christian Viertler, Marc Jeroen and Peter Hollman.10) Methods Investigating Food Related BehaviourMonique Raats, Liisa Lahteenmaki and Moira Dean.11) Methods for Assessing Nutritional Status and Body CompositionPeter Murgatroyd, Les JC Bluck and Laura Watson.12) Energy Expenditure and Intake MethodsKlaas R Westerterp.13) Application of Omics Technologies Helen Roche, Baukje De Roos and Lorraine Brennan.14) EpigeneticsJohn C Mathers.15) Nutrient–Gene InteractionsAnne Marie Minihane.16) Data Analytical Methods for the Application of Systems Biology in NutritionCorrado Priami and Melissa J Morine.17) Stable Isotopes in Nutrition ResearchMargot Umpleby and Barbara A Fielding.18) Animal Models in Nutrition ResearchAndrew M Salter.19) Cellular Models in Nutrition ResearchKathleen M Botham.20) Translation of Nutrition ResearchJudith Buttriss
