She earned her B.S. in Exercise Science at Lubbock Christian University, M.S. in Exercise Science at Texas Tech University and Ph.D. in Nutritional Sciences at Texas Tech University. Dr. Albracht-Schulte's research efforts aim to understand the mechanistic and potentially synergistic effects of exercise (intensity vs. duration) and nutrition (e.g. foods, nutrients, food bioactives and supplements) interventions by conducting clinical and translational research. Funded by USDA NIFA, her current research focuses on the combined effects of omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids and high-intensity interval training in an overweight population.
