Martin Kohlmeier, MD PhD

Professor
UNC Nutrition Research Institute
Chapel Hill, North Carolina, United States

Martin Kohlmeier, MD, PhD, is faculty in the UNC Chapel Hill Nutrition Department and director of the UNC Nutrition Research Institute’s Nutrigenetics Laboratory, and founding editor of BMJ Nutrition, Prevention & Health.
He focuses on precision nutrition and nutritional genetics. With more than forty years of experience in nutrition research, he has developed novel biochemical methods for the assessment of dietary intake and nutritional adequacy. He is the author of several books on nutrition, biochemistry and genetics, including Nutrient Metabolism, a textbook describing how the body handles about one hundred important compounds in food, from alcohol to zinc, and Nutrigenetics: Applying the science of personal nutrition.
Examples of his current research are investigations of the impact of genetic lactase variants on the bioavailability of flavonoids from berries, and of the joint impact of common genetic variants and nutrition on muscle performance and the risk of muscle loss.
