SoS 134- Excerpt from For the Love of Lemurs with Dr. Patricia Wright

Prof. Liz Mallott of Washington University in St. Louis joins Chris and Cristina to talk about her research on the human microbiome.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Dr. Liz Mallott is an assistant professor of Biology at Washington University in St. Louis. Professor Mallott’s research examines how social and environmental determinants of health shape variation in the human microbiome. Current projects examine how exposure to environmental pollutants, which disproportionately impact racial and ethnic minorities in the United States, influences the gut microbiome and cardiovascular disease risk.

SoS 75- Arch and Anth Crossover Episode ft. Chris Lynn

In this episode we bring you a cross-over with the podcast “With a Side of Knowledge”, hosted by Ted Fox from the University of Notre Dame’s Provost Office. This interview features our own Dr. Cara Ocobock discussing her work over brunch. Enjoy this fascinating conversation about extreme cold adaptations, Neanderthals, the anthropology of sports, and (of course) powerlifting.

SoS 76 - With a Side of Knowledge Crossover Episode ft. Cara Ocobock

This week, dive into one of our most meta-episodes yet: the podcast about a podcast featuring the amazing researchers behind the Anthrolactology blog and podcast! This interview features not one, but three cutting-edge anthropologists working at the intersections of anthropology, human lactation, and society. Dr. EA Quinn is an associate professor of biological anthropology at Washington University in St. Louis, Dr. Cecília Tomori is Director of Global Public Health and Community Health at Johns Hopkins School of Nursing, and Dr. Aunchalee Palmquist is an assistant professor of maternal and child health at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, and when they come together, great things happen.

SoS 77- The Anthrolactology Crossover

In this episode of the Sausage of Science, Cara and Chris talk with Drs. Jesús Rodriguez & Ana Mateos, scientists at the Centro Nacional de Investigación sobre la Evolución Humana (CENIEH) in Burgos, Spain. Drs. Rodriguez and Mateos highlight the amazing work going on at the center at the forefront of human evolution research. They also discuss their AJHB editor’s choice article entitled “No sex differences in the economy of load‐carriage”. Be sure to check out the article here:
https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1002/ajhb.23352

Their experimental work challenges long-held assumptions regarding sex differences in human energetics and contributes to both optimal foraging and life history theory.

SoS 78 – Take a load off: The energetics of carrying with Drs. Jesús Rodriguez & Ana Mateos

In this episode, Dr. Zaneta Thayer joins Chris and Cara to discuss her many projects examining the intergenerational effects of stressful experiences during pregnancy. Dr. Thayer works primarily in New Zealand, where her research has documented links between experienced discrimination and poor birth outcomes. She also discusses her recent clinical brief examining the health effects of psychosocial stress among individuals using assisted reproductive technologies. Finally, Dr. Thayer is joined by her postdoc Dr. Theresa Gildner to discuss their new project exploring how the COVID-19 pandemic is impacting maternity care and well-being.
