About Dr Laure Verstraeten,
As a Senior Scientist at Holland & Barrett, I lead research initiatives with academic partners to support evidence-based product innovation and drive meaningful outcomes for consumers.
My background is in nutritional science (PhD), with a focus on muscle health, healthy ageing, and the role of protein and exercise in later life. I have authored over 10 first-author publications and bring experience spanning academia, the medical nutrition industry, and an innovative biotech start-up—bridging rigorous research with practical application. I’m particularly interested in translating complex scientific evidence into clear, impactful insights that inform real-world health solutions and product development.
Outside of work, I enjoy cooking and hosting family & friends, as well as unwinding with yoga or a good novel.
