OverviewAI-generated summary

Joseph J. Matthews' research investigates human physiology and metabolism, with a particular focus on diet, exercise, and their impact on health outcomes. He has explored the effects of supplementation, such as carnosine and β-alanine, on markers of glycemic control and insulin resistance, including studies on type-2 diabetic human skeletal muscle cells. Matthews has also examined dietary protein quality and the anabolic response to different food sources, comparing meat and plant-based alternatives. His work includes systematic reviews and meta-analyses on topics such as weight cycling in youth sports and the influence of menstrual cycle phase on knee laxity and injury risk in women.

His research network includes key collaborators from the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, such as David D. Church, Arny A. Ferrando, and Robert R. Wolfe, with whom he has co-authored multiple publications. Matthews' scholarship is reflected in his h-index of 11 and over 500 citations across 22 publications, with recent activity in 2025.
