Tim’s research focuses on micronutrients, particularly during the first 1,000 days, with the aim of improving health outcomes for mothers and young children. His work is grounded in strengthening the evidence base for nutrient requirements, including conducting robust population‑based surveys to assess micronutrient deficiencies and, where relevant, excesses—prior to intervention. He designs and evaluates strategies such as dietary diversification, food fortification, and supplementation, and leads high‑quality trials to assess their efficacy, effectiveness, safety, and sustainability.
His research spans diverse global settings, from high‑income countries (Canada, New Zealand, Australia) to low‑ and middle‑income countries including the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Cambodia, and Kiribati. His work has informed national and international policy, and he regularly contributes to expert advisory committees, including those convened by the NHMRC and the World Health Organization (WHO).
