North Carolina State University
Dr Colin Kay is a Professor of Translational Nutrition in the Department of Food, Bioprocessing and Nutrition Sciences at the North Carolina State University’s Plants for Human Health Research Institute. Dr Kay’s research is centered on establishing the metabolism of dietary phytochemicals and the potential impact this has on their biological activity. His research core is focused on the development of qualitative and quantitative metabolomic MS/MS methodologies for establishing the contribution of dietary phytochemicals to the human metabolome. This work has led to developing a food composition knowledge database comprising chemical composition and metabolome data, including chemical, reaction and pathway identifiers for supporting precision nutrition and health initiatives.
