Elizabeth Bertone-Johnson

Elizabeth Bertone-Johnson is an Associate Professor at the University of Massachusetts Amherst's School of Public Health and Health Sciences, with a focus on women's reproductive health, nutritional epidemiology, and environmental influences on menopause. Her work spans clinical research, public health interventions, and cross-sectional analyses of premenstrual disorders.

• Education: ScD in Epidemiology, SM in Nutrition

Her research explores how dietary patterns, sleep, and environmental factors affect hormonal transitions and chronic disease risks in women. Recent studies examine premenstrual disorders' associations with cardiovascular outcomes, sleep's role in fertility, and inflammation biomarkers in reproductive aging.

Key publication trends reveal collaborative work in Reproductive Medicine, Nutritional Sciences, and Epidemiology, with frequent use of longitudinal cohort data from the Nurses' Health Study II and Swedish registries. Subfields include premenstrual syndrome, early menopause, vitamin D metabolism, and stress-related health disparities in marginalized populations.

• Key Collaborators: Brian Whitcomb, Lynnette Sievert, Kathleen Szegda

She contributes to public health discourse through studies on dietary inflammatory index, environmental exposures, and mental health outcomes, particularly in lesbian and bisexual women.
