Research summary

Bjorn Kluwe studies how stress-related hormones (like cortisol and aldosterone) and body composition relate to conditions such as diabetes, high blood pressure, and heart disease, with a particular focus on African American populations. Much of this work draws on large community health studies, including the Jackson Heart Study, and also includes community-based lifestyle intervention programs aimed at improving cardiovascular and mental health in Black communities. The overall goal is to better understand and reduce health disparities in cardiometabolic disease.
