Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Nathan C. Twaddle's research focuses on the toxicological effects of various chemical compounds and environmental factors on biological systems, utilizing animal models and advanced analytical techniques. His work has investigated the impact of inorganic arsenic on neuronal development and cellular processes in zebrafish, exploring the underlying molecular pathways, including the Sonic hedgehog pathway. He has also examined the effects of dietary soy protein, with varying isoflavone levels, on metabolic health, including liver steatosis and serum inflammatory markers in rat models, particularly in the context of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease.

Twaddle's research extends to the analysis of elemental impurities in substances such as cannabis following vaporization. His work often involves collaborations with researchers at the National Center for Toxicological Research and the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, contributing to a body of work that has resulted in over 60 publications and significant citation counts. His h-index of 34 and total citations of over 4,000 indicate a highly cited researcher in his field.
