Graduate Student
Emory University
Somerset, Kentucky, United States
Selin Sergin is a second-year doctoral student in the Nutrition and Health Sciences Program at Emory University. After gaining a strong research background in nutritional biochemistry and fatty acid analysis during her undergraduate degree at Michigan State University, she is now engaging in opportunities to further her experience in global public health nutrition. Her interests include supporting effective implementation of interventions to improve micronutrient nutrition using public health approaches like food fortification. She is presenting work from a large systematic review project that is summarizing the impact of large-scale food fortification on diet, nutritional status, and functional outcomes for food/nutrient combinations that do not currently have fortification guidelines from the World Health Organization, including a review on fortified milk. This project was her first opportunity to be involved in research on food fortification and was a great opportunity to get involved with the Food Fortification Initiative at Emory. In the future, Selin aspires to be a leader in global public health to improve the health and nutritional status of populations using nutrition research and implementation science tools.
