OverviewAI-generated summary

Leanna Delhey's research investigates metabolic and molecular alterations associated with various health conditions, with a particular focus on autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and childhood obesity. Her work has explored metabolomic signatures in ASD, examining the relationship between mitochondrial morphology and respiratory chain uncoupling, as well as the role of mitochondrial fatty acid beta-oxidation and resveratrol in fibroblasts from patients with ASD. Delhey has also studied redox imbalance and methylation disturbances in early childhood obesity, and the impact of excess weight and insulin resistance on DNA methylation in prepubertal children. Furthermore, her research has addressed the influence of environmental factors, such as air pollution and temperature, on neurodevelopmental regressive events in ASD. More recently, her work has extended to population-based studies examining neighborhood resources and health outcomes among stroke survivors.

Delhey's scholarship includes 51 publications and has garnered 1,829 citations, with an h-index of 20. She has been active in research, with her most recent publication in 2026 and marked as recently active.
