Louise Goff

Dr. Louise Goff is a Research Fellow at King's College London specializing in nutritional physiology and cardiometabolic disease. Her research investigates ethnic disparities in type 2 diabetes development and management, focusing on physiological mechanisms and culturally tailored interventions. She leads the HEAL-D program developing culturally-appropriate diabetes self-management for African and Caribbean communities.

Key research areas:

• Ethnic variations in ectopic fat deposition and insulin sensitivity
• Culturally adapted lifestyle interventions
• Cardiovascular risk in diverse populations

Her work integrates metabolic phenotyping with community engagement, examining biological and social determinants of health disparities. Current projects include investigations of complement system markers in cardiometabolic risk and food insecurity impacts during pregnancy.
