HRI Member Dr Catherine Norton Featured by the Irish Independent

We’re proud to celebrate Dr Catherine Norton, a valued member of the Health Research Institute (HRI) and co-lead of our Food, Diet and Nutrition research group, who has recently been highlighted in two major platforms for her expertise.

Dr Norton was featured by University of Limerick as part of its research stories series and also contributed to a health and wellbeing article in the Irish Independent, sharing evidence-based insights on how to approach diet and lifestyle changes in the new year.

Her work emphasises that sustainable health is built on balance and moderation—not extreme diets or unnecessary restrictions. This recognition showcases the impact of HRI research in shaping public conversations around nutrition and wellbeing.
