- Assistant Professor of Biological Anthropology, Washington University in St. Louis
I am a biological anthropologist interested in the effects of human behavior and the environment on disease risk. My work uses a biocultural approach to examine how lifestyle variation influences immune function. I am also interested in understanding how these interactions can be used to design more effective disease intervention programs.
