The L’Abbé Lab offers a stimulating place for research on food and nutrition policy for population health.
Students interested in joining the lab should have a strong interest in public health nutrition policy and population health research. Current and recent research areas include food supply monitoring, front-of-package labelling, nutrition claims, children’s food marketing, school food environments, dietary intakes, restaurant foods and menu labelling, sodium and sugar reduction, artificial intelligence and machine learning for nutrition surveillance, and the evaluation of food and nutrition policies.
Students must also work well independently; have excellent time management skills; be extremely oriented to detail; and be open-minded, flexible, and hard working. If this looks like the right fit for you, please contact Dr. L’Abbé via email to explain your research interests. Also please send along your CV and transcript.
