Within these broad fields, Mitchell's work focuses on several subfields such as Molecular Biology, Immunology, Cancer Research, Agronomy and Crop Science, and Obstetrics and Gynecology.

The scientist's main research topics center around extracellular vesicles and their roles in disease, reproductive system and pregnancy, as well as microRNA in disease regulation. Additional key areas of study include reproductive physiology in livestock, preterm birth and chorioamnionitis, neonatal respiratory health research, and endometriosis research and treatment.

Mitchell has contributed to a number of recent papers published between 2021 and 2023. Notable examples include:

  • The exosome: a review of current therapeutic roles and capabilities in human reproduction (2022, Drug Delivery and Translational Research)
  • A Comparison of Blood Plasma Small Extracellular Vesicle Enrichment Strategies for Proteomic Analysis (2022, Proteomes)
  • Adverse childhood experiences, the risk of pregnancy complications and adverse pregnancy outcomes: a systematic review and meta-analysis (2023, BMJ Open)
  • Cannabidiol and Neurodevelopmental Disorders in Children (2021, Frontiers in Psychiatry)
  • A complete proteomic profile of human and bovine milk exosomes by liquid chromatography mass spectrometry (2021, Expert Review of Proteomics)

The scientist has collaborated frequently with several coauthors, including Pevindu Abeysinghe, Natalie Turner, Jayden Logan, Kanchan Vaswani, and Hassendrini N. Peiris.

Mitchell's research has been published repeatedly in a range of venues, with multiple works appearing in Research Square (Research Square), Journal of Dairy Science, International Journal of Molecular Sciences, Prostaglandins Leukotrienes and Essential Fatty Acids, and bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory).
