Their research spanned multiple fields primarily focused on Nursing and Medicine, with a significant emphasis on Nutrition and Dietetics as a key subfield. Other notable subfields included Plant Science, Molecular Biology, Biomedical Engineering, and Nephrology.

The main topics of their work revolved around magnesium and its role in health and disease, evidenced by a substantial number of publications addressing Magnesium in Health and Disease. Other areas included Trace Elements in Health, Plant Micronutrient Interactions and Effects, Parathyroid Disorders and Treatments, Bone Tissue Engineering Materials, Advanced X-ray Imaging Techniques, and Bone Health and Osteoporosis Research.

Several recent papers associated with their research included:

  • "The COVID-19 pandemic: is there a role for magnesium? Hypotheses and perspectives" (2020) published in Magnesium Research
  • "The relevance of magnesium homeostasis in COVID-19" (2021) in European Journal of Nutrition
  • "Recommendation on an updated standardization of serum magnesium reference ranges" (2022) in European Journal of Nutrition
  • "Going to the roots of reduced magnesium dietary intake: A tradeoff between climate changes and sources" (2020) in Heliyon
  • "Importance of Magnesium Status in COVID-19" (2023) in Biology

Frequent collaborators during their career included Emil Malucelli, Jeanette A.M. Maier, Alessandra Gianoncelli, Concettina Cappadone, and Giovanna Farruggia.

Their publications appeared predominantly in specialized scientific journals with the most frequent venues being the International Journal of Molecular Sciences, European Journal of Nutrition, Magnesium Research, Nutrients, and PubMed.

George K. Radda was recognized by several awards such as being a Member of Academia Europaea since 1999 and a Fellow of the Royal Society, United Kingdom, awarded in 1980.
