Breastmilk Ecology: Genesis of Infant Nutrition (BEGIN) Meeting Series--Working Group 4: Integration and Application
A deeper understanding of the biology of human milk is essential to address ongoing and emerging questions about infant feeding practices. Human milk is a complex biological system, a matrix of many interacting parts, that is more than the sum of those parts. Its production needs to be studied as an ecology that consists of inputs from the mother, her breastfeeding baby, and their respective environments. The Breastmilk Ecology: Genesis of Infant Nutrition (BEGIN) meeting series is designed to examine this ecology, its functional implications for both mother and infant. The goal is to develop a targeted research agenda to ...

NHLBI Obesity, Nutrition, and Physical Activity Seminar Series: Obesity and Food Insecurity
In this one-hour webinar, two NHBLI-funded extramural investigators will present their important research on Obesity and Food Insecurity. Dr. Sara Bleich is a Professor of Public Health Policy at the Harvard Chan School of Public Health in the Department of Health Policy and Management. She is also the Carol K. Pforzheimer Professor at the Radcliffe Institute for Advanced Study and a member of the faculty at the Harvard Kennedy School of Government. Her research provides evidence to support policies to prevent obesity, food insecurity, and diet-related diseases, particularly among populations at higher risk. Dr. Caitlin Ca...

What It Means to Talk About Race and African American Health
This talk examines the impact of racism on African American health, looking at pervasive inequities that drive higher rates of morbidity and death in the United States. Where once explicitly racist theories of African American bodies and minds dominated public and scientific discourse, contemporary understandings of racial inequities in health tend to use less incendiary language, but still conceive of poor health as fundamentally a problem of individuals. Such framing centers health behaviors including diet and visits to the doctor, and leaves the role of social structures uninterrogated. This talk explores the deeply ent...

Breastmilk Ecology: Genesis of Infant Nutrition (BEGIN) Meeting Series: Working Group 5
The Breastmilk Ecology: Genesis of Infant Nutrition (BEGIN) Workshop is directly relevant to PRGLAC and developing Common Fund Initiative in Precision Nutrition. Our workshop will focus on understanding human milk as a biological system and how that informs infant feeding. It will incorporate a developmental continuum that begins with maternal health and nutrition and how they impact mammary gland development and human milk composition, throughout gestation and then postpartum. It will also encompass what we know and how we can learn more about the nutritional needs of the infant, from in utero through the first two years ...

Virtual Workshop Metabolism-based Therapies for Epilepsy Workshop
Metabolism-based therapies for epilepsy have been suggested since antiquity but the modern use of ketogenic diets for epilepsy treatment has been in medical practice for nearly 100 years. The use of these diets has since expanded to less intensive regimens and supplements. Despite decades of research, the mechanisms underlying the efficacy of these treatments is not completely understood, although important factors have been identified. The nature of these treatments (e.g., altered diet regimens) has made rigorous studies a challenge, both in the preclinical and clinical spaces. Bench-bedside translation has been a challen...
