Congratulations! Under Dr. Lauren Kelly's supervision, Uma defended her Master's thesis Medications in Milk. Dr. Kelly's Clinical Pharmacology Lab studies the use of medications during breastfeeding, and played an integral role in the launch of MILC. Visit this link for Dr. Kelly's Tweetorial on Uma's presentation.

The Breastmilk Ecology: Genesis of Infant Nutrition (BEGIN) Project webinar was held virtually earlier this week and MILC Co-Director, Dr. Meghan Azad, presented on the "Research Approach for Investigating Human Milk as a Biological System". The BEGIN Project looks at the ecological approach to analyzing human milk by studying it as a complex biological system and examining its interactions with its internal (parental biology) and external (infant interactions) environments.
