Rachel Brown is the Deputy Head of Department. Her primary research focus is on the health effects of regular nut consumption. She has led numerous human intervention studies examining outcomes such as blood lipid and lipoprotein levels, glycaemic response, sensory perception, inflammatory markers, endothelial function, appetite regulation, diet quality, body weight management, and overall energy balance.
Rachel leads the Nut Research Group, which was the first to explore critical public health questions around the feasibility and sustainability of regular nut consumption. Her research has significantly informed national dietary policy, contributing to New Zealand’s Eating and Activity Guidelines for Adults.
In 2022, Rachel was elected President of the Nutrition Society of New Zealand, an organisation dedicated to promoting ethical, evidence-based research and communication in nutritional science. She also holds a senior role on the Registration Panel for Nutritionists, where she assesses approximately 100 applications annually. Her work in this capacity ensures the integrity and credibility of the nutrition profession in Aotearoa New Zealand.
