Alice Lucey

Biography

Dr Alice Lucey, BSc (Nutritional Sciences), PhD (Nutrition), RNutr (Public Health Nutrition),
PG Dip (TLHE)·& PG Cert (Innovation, Commercialisation & Entrepreneurship).
 
Alice leads research in the area of nutrition, food bioactives and health, specifically, the design of innovative food-based solutions to support health and well-being.
·      
As a Lecturer the integration of nutrition research within our classes is a priority for me so that our students are always up to speed on the latest developments in the field.


Dr. Alice Lucey completed her BSc (Nutritional Sciences) and PhD in Nutrition at the School of Food and Nutritional Sciences at University College Cork. Alice is the current Academic Programme Director of the BSc Nutritional Sciences. Alice is a Registered Nutritionist (AfN) and Lecturer in Nutritional Science at the School of Food & Nutritional Sciences.

Alice is a Principal Investigator at the Cork Centre for Vitamin D and Nutrition Research, UCC. Alice leads and collaborates in research in the area of nutrition, food bioactives and health, specifically, the design of innovative food-based solutions to support health and well-being. Alice has been awarded >€2 million in research funding  and her research interests include the role of micronutrients vitamin K and D and food-based strategies (including dietary bioactives, fruit, vegetables, dietary fibre) on cardiometabolic and musculoskeletal health outcomes.
Alice has significant expertise and more than 15 years’ experience in trial design and methodology for human dietary intervention studies; and has coordinated dietary based interventions at national and European level.

Alice has co-authored peer-reviewed publications in leading nutrition and health journals and has supervised MSc and PhD candidates. Alice actively collaborates with the food sector and is interested in food innovation, she has recently completed her PG Certificate in Innovation, Commercialisation, and Entrepreneurship (Food) at University College Cork. She has a distinct interest the Irish agri-food sector and nutrition-informed ‘Farm-to-Fork’ strategies and food systems.

Alice was awarded her PG Diploma in Teaching & Learning at Higher Level (2018) and teaches nutrition across fourteen modules across ten different academic programmes, ranging from fundamental nutrition to specialist areas including Animal Nutrition, Lifecycle Nutrition, Public Health Nutrition and Nutritional Epidemiology.

Alice is strongly committed to encouraging professional development in Nutrition Science and has been a member of the Nutrition Society since 2002 and has contributed to the Nutrition Society Irish Section Committee since 2016. She is local ambassador for The Nutrition Society at UCC. She is the Chair of the Local Organising Committee for the upcoming Irish Section Meeting which will be hosted by UCC in Cork in June 2022.

Research Interests:
  • Research interests include the impact of food-based strategies (including vitamins D and K; dietary bioactives, fruit, vegetables, dietary fibre) on cardiometabolic and musculoskeletal health outcomes. 
  • Dr Lucey has significant expertise and more than 15 years’ experience in best practice trial design and methodologies for human dietary intervention studies; and has coordinated dietary based interventions at national and European level and is recognised as an expert in this area.
  • Dr Lucey is interested in food innovation and has recently completed her PG Certificate in Innovation, Commercialisation, and Entrepreneurship (Food) at University College Cork. 
  • She has a distinct interest the Irish agri-food sector and nutrition-informed ‘Farm-to-Fork’ strategies and food systems. She has led and currently leads on Irish DAFM-funded multi-disciplinary projects [Cardio-Rubus project [Beneficial effects of blackberry (Rubus polyphenols on cardiovascular & metabolic health & RubusElite project [Development of a high protein, polyphenol enriched dairy beverage for musculoskeletal benefit in physically active individuals]]. This research is focused on the development and the subsequent testing for physiological efficacy of high value novel blackberry enriched foods to support consumer health, to encourage food innovation and to act as a stimulus for growth in the Irish berry fruit horticulture sector and broader food enterprise.
