About

Hi, I’m Christy.

I’m a scientist, writer, outdoor enthusiast, wife, gardener, foodie, and lifelong learner.

I earned my PhD from the University of Arizona studying the role of microbes in our gut during inflammation, and went on to work in the New York City Public Health Lab as a government postdoctoral fellow, where I bent my work toward improving global lab systems. Currently I blend both of those worlds as a research postdoc at the University of Utah where I attempt to study global health through a lens of immunology and metabolism. I am passionate about what data says about who we are, and how science provides groundwork for us to help one another, better ourselves and create more holistically healthy societies.

Most of my writing circles my passions: sustainability, food and nutrition, climate, the gut and its ecosystem, immunity and the outdoors. I’m interested in holistic human and planetary flourishing, believing firmly that both are entwined.

Thanks for stopping by!
Christy Harrison Clutter
