Katherine E. Hartmann, M.D., Ph.D., has been named director of the University of Kentucky Center for Clinical and Translational Science (CCTS). She will assume the role on February 15, 2024.
In addition to her role at the UK CCTS, Hartmann will serve as associate vice president for research, clinical & translational science, and in the UK College of Medicine she will be the associate dean of research development and synergy, and a professor of obstetrics and gynecology.
Ketrell L. McWhorter, PhD, MBA, ACE-CPT, ACE-FNS, assistant professor of epidemiology and environmental health in the UK College of Public Health, has been awarded a Diversity Supplement Grant from National Center for Advancing Translational Science (NCATS).
The award supports her project “Impact of co-exposures on Pediatric Obesity and Sleep in Appalachian Children,” which seeks to disentangle the complex relationship between children’s exposure to second-hand smoke and air pollution, its impact on their sleep, and how these factors influence body weight and cardiometabolic outcomes.
