OverviewAI-generated summary
Aline Andres is a faculty member at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences whose research focuses on maternal and infant health, particularly in relation to maternal body composition, diet, and the gut microbiome.
Her work has investigated the associations between maternal overweight and obesity and offspring growth and gut microbiome development within the first year of life. Andres has also examined the relationship between maternal diet, body composition, and gut microbial ecology during pregnancy. Her research extends to understanding human milk as a biological system and exploring its role in infant nutrition. She has also conducted research on the presence of SARS-CoV-2 RNA and IgA antibodies in human milk from women diagnosed with COVID-19.
Andres has also contributed to broader discussions on human health and the food system, including a perspective piece on ultra-processed foods. Her scholarship metrics include an h-index of 35, 219 total publications, and 3,475 total citations. She has collaborated extensively with researchers at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, including Clark Sims, Elisabet Børsheim, Sarah Sobik, and Sree Vamsee Chintapalli.
