Heather L. Winter is a National Institutes of Health T32 fellow and member of the Cech research group. She received her BS degree in Nutrition from the University of Connecticut and worked as a researcher in natural products in the laboratory of Dr. Marcy Balunas prior to joining the PhD program at UNC Greensboro. Heather’s research involves the development of novel mass spectrometry metabolomics approaches to determine mechanism of action of botanical natural products. She uses these approaches to predict mechanism of action for botanical constituents and extracts, and to improve quality control of botanical dietary supplements and gain insight into how botanical medicines can be employed in the treatment and prevention of disease. In addition to her own investigations, Heather has successfully mentored multiple undergraduates in research and has engaged enthusiastically in outreach activities.
When Heather is not analyzing data, she enjoys drawing sketches of medicinal plants, hiking with her dog, Lily, visiting family, reading mystery novels, and tending to her herb garden.
