How can I pursue a PhD in research on nutrition affecting behavioral health regarding autism (?
How can I pursue a PhD in research on nutrition affecting behavioral health regarding autism? I am currently a Registered Behavior Technician II with a BA in psychology, and I witness firsthand how much nutrition can impact behavior. However, there are a lot of hoops to jump through for me to be able to conduct the research I want to do, and I am not exactly sure how to navigate through them. In my undergraduate program, I took a nutrition class and learned how artificial sugar impacts cognitive performance, and I realized how unaware the general population is regarding proper nutrition. Thus, I could see the behavioral difference in some of my clients based on the kinds of foods they ate and the severity and frequency of maladaptive behaviors, attention abilities, and energy levels. As of right now, I am thinking I need to attend a community college to attain a Nutritional Specialist certification and an Associate of Science degree for the prerequisites before I pursue a graduate degree in nutritional sciences. Additionally, I have vaguely looked into it, but I am still trying to find a school that conducts research related to my ideal research area.
