ANTH 431: Methods in Nutritional Research

Anthropology · 5 credits

Future generations face the challenge of developing sufficient and sustainable nutritional provisions to feed the global population. Technology, climate change, massive migrations, environmental contamination and politics all compel us to elucidate the efficacy of resulting changes to our food chain and their subsequent biological outcome. Using a nutritional epidemiology approach, this course is designed to learn from past research mistakes resulting in misguided nutritional policies and to develop skills needed to design anthropological research strategies for nutritional studies for the 21st Century.

Offered in 2 of the 26 listed terms (Winter 2021 to Winter 2022).
