Message from the Speaker Series Chairs
From biology and agriculture to economics and sociology, a great many fields bear on the study of nutrition. The Speaker Series is a chance to hear informed perspectives from respected scholars, theorists, and activists – to broaden our own thinking and find even more ways to make a contribution. We welcome all ideas and suggestions regarding speakers and topics.
