Stephanie W. Waldrop, MD, MPH (she/her/hers)

Fellow
University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus
Aurora, Colorado, United States

Dr. Waldrop is an Instructor/Research Fellow in the Department of Pediatrics, Section of Nutrition at the University of Colorado – Anschutz Medical Center, supported by the Ruth L. Kirschstein National Research Service Award T32 Research Fellowship in Nutrition at the University of Colorado – Anschutz Medical Campus (CU – Anschutz). She received her BS in Natural Sciences-Public Health from Johns Hopkins University, her MPH from the University of Alabama- Birmingham and her MD from Wayne State University School of Medicine. She completed her pediatric residency at Morehouse School of Medicine. Her research interest is in understanding the interactions of nutrition, maternal intrauterine exposures, and epigenetics on obesity risk in childhood. She aims to identify and assess the most optimal nutritional strategies for children at high risk of obesity and associated co-morbidities in the context of their interaction with genetic predisposition, susceptibility conferred via intrauterine exposures, and their effects on infant and child growth. Her interests lie in understanding how the totality of these exposures and potential predictors can be moderated by evidence based nutritional interventions established earlier in life and sustained throughout the life course.
