Additionally, Dr. Bellows has worked with an interdisciplinary food systems team contributing expertise in diet quality, food security, the food environment and rural communities. Dr. Bellows has been awarded the Presidential Early Career Award for Scientists and Engineers (PECASE) by President Barack Obama, and the Society of Nutrition Education and Behavior’s Mid-Career Award.  She serves as an associate editor for the International Journal of Behavioral Nutrition and Physical Activity and co-chair of the research division for the Society of Nutrition Education and Behavior.
