Research

Dr. Sattler a licensed pharmacist with a PhD in Foods and Nutrition who leads an interdisciplinary, extramurally-funded research laboratory that (1) investigates the epidemiology of lifestyle-related cardiovascular disease risk factors, and (2) tests the effect of clinical nutrition interventions on cardiovascular disease outcomes. The overarching goal of her research is to generate evidence that supports strategies for improved cardiovascular disease prevention and management for the benefit of at-risk populations, for whom medical care is limited or less accessible, including minorities, those of lower socioeconomic status, and individuals with advanced cardiovascular disease or multimorbidity. Dr. Sattler has established a national reputation in cardiovascular health research, as evidenced by over $800K obtained in extramural funding, numerous research conference presentation and moderation invitations, invited talks, honors to serve in national leadership roles at the American Heart Association, invitations to scientific statement writing groups, and the receipt of national and international research fellowships.
