Christopher D. Crabtree

Christopher D. Crabtree studies how ketogenic diets and ketone supplements affect metabolism, heart function, and exercise performance in humans, using tools like cardiac MRI and blood biomarkers. His work spans clinical populations such as people with obesity, depression, or metastatic breast cancer, as well as healthy adults and exercise/performance contexts including reaction-time and shooting simulations. This research is relevant to students interested in nutrition science, cardiovascular imaging, and applied exercise physiology.

Publication output has grown over the last decade, rising from about 1-3 papers per year in the late 2010s to a peak of 7 in 2025, indicating an increasingly active and productive research program.
