Dr. Gooding’s research explores the preservation of cardiovascular health both during and following the transition from adolescence to adulthood. This research uses longitudinal epidemiologic cohorts such as the National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent Health (Add Health) and the Coronary Artery Risk Development in Young Adults (CARDIA) study as well as clinical populations such as young women with polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) and healthy youth eligible for cholesterol screening.

In addition to her research and clinical work, Dr. Gooding teaches about adolescent and young adult care to medical students, pediatric and internal medicine residents, interdisciplinary adolescent medicine fellows, and health care professionals.
