Sausage of Science 185: Dr. Jason DeCaro: How to Speak Softly and Carry a Big Tool Box

In this episode, Mallika and Chris chat with Dr. Jason DeCaro, Professor and Chair of the University of Alabama's Anthropology Department. Dr. DeCaro studies the intersection of cultural models, everyday practices, and human physiology in the production of differential well-being across the life course, especially but not exclusively focusing on children. His Developmental Ecology and Human Biology Lab is a biological anthropology "wet lab" providing a center within the department for biocultural research involving immunological, endocrine, nutritional, and other biological markers. His recent publication on applying minimally invasive biomarkers of chronic stress across complex ecological contexts can be found at the following link: https://doi.org/10.1002/ajhb.23814 ------------------------------ Dr. DeCaro's email: [email protected] Website: https://dehb.ua.edu/jason-decaro.html -------------------- Contact the Sausage of Science Podcast and Human Biology Association: Facebook: www.facebook.com/groups/humanbiologyassociation Website: humbio.org/, Twitter: @HumBioAssoc Chris Lynn, HBA Public Relations Committee Chair, Website: cdlynn.people.ua.edu/, Email: [email protected], Twitter:@Chris_Ly Mallika Sarma, Website: mallikasarma.com/, Twitter: @skyy_mal Cristina Gildee, HBA Junior Fellow, SoS producer: E-mail: [email protected]
