Overview

Patrick J. Stover is affiliated with Texas A&M University in the United States. Their research primarily focuses on medicine as well as biochemistry, genetics, and molecular biology. Within these domains, subfields of particular engagement include physiology, rheumatology, public health, environmental and occupational health, molecular biology, and genetics.

Their body of work addresses several main topics, such as folate and B vitamins research, diet and metabolism studies, nutrition and health in aging, nutrition, genetics, and disease, nutritional studies and diet, dietary effects on health, and muscle metabolism and nutrition. These research interests are reflected in published papers spanning years 2020 to 2023, appearing in various academic journals.

Notable recent publications include:

  • Knowledge gaps in understanding the metabolic and clinical effects of excess folates/folic acid: a summary, and perspectives, from an NIH workshop (2020) - American Journal of Clinical Nutrition
  • Extracellular serine and glycine are required for mouse and human skeletal muscle stem and progenitor cell function (2020) - Molecular Metabolism
  • Neurobiology of eating behavior, nutrition, and health (2023) - Journal of Internal Medicine
  • Strengthening national nutrition research: rationale and options for a new coordinated federal research effort and authority (2020) - American Journal of Clinical Nutrition
  • Precision Nutrition: The Hype Is Exceeding the Science and Evidentiary Standards Needed to Inform Public Health Recommendations for Prevention of Chronic Disease (2023) - Annual Review of Nutrition

Frequent co-authors collaborating with Patrick J. Stover include Martha S. Field, Regan L Bailey, Kendra A. Tiani, Amanda J MacFarlane, and Heidi M. Blank.

The scholar's work is regularly published in a range of venues, with multiple contributions to the Annual Review of Nutrition, American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, Journal of Nutrition, Current Developments in Nutrition, and the Journal of Internal Medicine.

Awards recognizing their professional contributions include membership in the National Academy of Sciences since 2016 and fellowship with the American Association for the Advancement of Science, awarded in 2014.
