Infant Feeding, Nutrition, and Child Development: A Cross-Cultural Odyssey

Dr. Bentley’s Kellogg International Global Nutrition award lecture will discuss three broad themes related to early nutrition and child development. This includes her personal journey of becoming a nutritional anthropologist.
