Overview

Kim F. Michaelsen is affiliated with the University of Copenhagen in Denmark and has an extensive record of research focusing on nutrition, pediatrics, and public health. Their work spans several interrelated fields such as Medicine and Nursing, with particular emphasis on subfields including Nutrition and Dietetics, Pediatrics, Perinatology and Child Health, Public Health, Environmental and Occupational Health, Epidemiology, and Psychiatry and Mental Health.

The scientific contributions of Michaelsen cover diverse topics relating primarily to child and infant nutrition and health. Key topics in their research include:

  • Child Nutrition and Water Access
  • Infant Nutrition and Health
  • Birth, Development, and Health
  • Breastfeeding Practices and Influences
  • Child Nutrition and Feeding Issues
  • Obesity, Physical Activity, Diet
  • Nutrition and Health in Aging

Michaelsen has published several recent papers that illustrate their research focus. Notable publications include:

  • "Bifidobacterium species associated with breastfeeding produce aromatic lactic acids in the infant gut" (2021, Nature Microbiology)
  • "Novel loci for childhood body mass index and shared heritability with adult cardiometabolic traits" (2020, PLoS Genetics)
  • "Maternal milk microbiota and oligosaccharides contribute to the infant gut microbiota assembly" (2021, ISME Communications)
  • "Restitution of gut microbiota in Ugandan children administered with probiotics (Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG and Bifidobacterium animalis subsp. lactis BB-12) during treatment for severe acute malnutrition" (2020, Gut Microbes)
  • "Thymus size and its correlates among children admitted with severe acute malnutrition: a cross-sectional study in Uganda" (2021, BMC Pediatrics)

Frequent co-authors in Michaelsen's research include Christian Mølgaard, Henrik Friis, Benedikte Grenov, Christian Ritz, and André Briend, indicating collaborative work across interdisciplinary teams and domains related to nutrition science.

Michaelsen's publications often appear in well-established journals and venues such as Advances in Nutrition, World Review of Nutrition and Dietetics, Journal of Nutrition, Nutrients, and Current Developments in Nutrition. The recurrent presence in these venues reflects a consistent engagement with advances in nutritional science.

Additionally, Michaelsen has contributed to scholarly books, notably publishing with Karger Publishers. One such work is titled "Global Landscape of Nutrition Challenges in Infants and Children" (2020), which contributes to the broader understanding of nutritional issues faced by younger populations worldwide.
