HSPH Nutrition Seminar Series

Alicia Ellis, HSPH postdoc, presents the Nutrition Seminar Series talk, “Do pollinators matter for human nutrition?” The talk discusses the changes in micronutrient nutrition that would occur in populations from four countries in the context of severe pollinator declines.  Professor Sam Myers, Instructor in Medicine (HMS) and Research Scientist, Department of Environmental Health (HSPH), notes “To our knowledge, this is the first analysis that has attempted to model the impact of pollinator declines on human nutrition.”
