OverviewAI-generated summary

Corey Nagel is an Associate Professor in Nursing Research at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, College of Nursing. His research focuses on understanding trajectories of health and disease over time, particularly in older adults, and examining disparities in these trajectories based on race, ethnicity, socioeconomic status, and other factors. Nagel has investigated the accumulation of multimorbidity (the co-occurrence of multiple chronic conditions) and its impact on functional status, cognitive performance, and depressive symptoms.

His work has explored racial and ethnic differences in how multimorbidity changes over time, as well as disparities in morbidity accumulation among older Americans. He has also examined the relationship between multimorbidity, body mass index, and race/ethnicity in middle-aged Americans. Nagel leads a research group and has a publication record including over 125 total publications and a h-index of 24, with more than 2,100 citations. He is recognized as a highly cited researcher.

Nagel collaborates with researchers such as Pearman D. Parker and Joseph Asante. His recent publications span topics including trajectories of cognitive functioning, multidimensional trajectories of multimorbidity, and disparities in morbidity accumulation. He has also contributed to research on interventions, such as a sanitation behavior change intervention in India, and on the potential effects of compounds like ezetimibe on neurodegenerative diseases.
