The Michigan Anthropology Colloquia Series: "The Good, The Bad, and the Maladapted: Fetal Sensitivity in Light of Evolutionarily Novel Environments"

"Developmental plasticity is an important mechanism for evolutionary adaptation. This talk explores how developmental plasticity in the human stress response system shapes patterns of health and disease in contemporary environments. It will also consider how an evolutionary perspective can inform our approach to public health intervention to reduce the impacts of adverse environments on health."

The Michigan Anthropology Colloquia Series presents speakers on current topics in the field of anthropology.
