Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Lindsay Pack's research focuses on the intersection of metabolomics, gut microbiome, and various physiological states. Her work investigates how factors such as maternal obesity, exercise, and diet influence metabolic markers, including bile acids and branched-chain amino acids, particularly in the context of infant growth and maternal health. Pack has also explored the role of specific microbial elements, such as the diadenylate cyclase CdaA in bacterial virulence, and has contributed to understanding lipid metabolism through the detection of novel fatty acids. Her research extends to disease progression, examining colonic epithelial hypoxia in diabetes models and the potential therapeutic effects of compounds like elamipretide in polycystic kidney disease. Pack is recognized for her expertise in untargeted metabolomics, including the optimization of analytical methods using Orbitrap mass spectrometry for plasma analysis. She has published 29 papers, accumulating 569 citations, with an h-index of 12. Her collaborations include 13 shared publications with Renny S. Lan.
