Amy Goss

Dr. Amy Goss is an Associate Professor of Nutrition Sciences at the University of Alabama at Birmingham's School of Health Professions, with joint appointments in the School of Medicine's Comprehensive Diabetes Center and the Nutrition Obesity Research Center. She specializes in randomized clinical trials investigating diet quality and macronutrient composition effects on metabolic diseases like obesity, NAFLD, and type 2 diabetes.

Her research utilizes MRI/MRS techniques to assess fat distribution and organ lipid content across pediatric and adult populations. Current work focuses on family-based controlled feeding studies to improve outcomes in children with NAFLD. She holds a Ph.D. in Nutrition Sciences from UAB and is a Registered Dietitian.

Research interests include metabolic disease prevention, pediatric nutrition interventions, advanced body composition analysis, and dietary strategies for chronic disease management. Recent publications focus on carbohydrate restriction, cystic fibrosis metabolism, and biomarker development.

Articles demonstrate strong emphasis on clinical trial design, metabolic phenotyping, and translational nutrition science, with increasing focus on precision nutrition approaches and metabolic imaging technologies.
