Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

SoS 249: Cup, Swab, or Pad? How Collection Shapes Menstrual Biomarkers
Q: What are the main findings related to the cell types recovered from different sampling methods?
Luisa explained that swabs yield the highest number of epithelial cells while menstrual cups showed a greater proportion of leukocytes, emphasizing that the method of collection significantly influences the data.
SoS 249: Cup, Swab, or Pad? How Collection Shapes Menstrual Biomarkers
Q: What motivated this research on using menstrual blood as a biomarker?
Luisa discussed her previous work on placentas and the need for better early interventions in women's health issues, leading her to focus on menstrual effluent as a more accessible and telling biomarker.
SoS 247: Intergenerational Signals w/ Dr. Haley Ragsdale: A DOHaD Lens on Human Reproduction
Q: What were your key findings?
Dr. Ragsdale found strong associations between maternal growth patterns and offspring fetal growth, indicating that earlier growth periods may be more critical than the commonly emphasized early childhood window.
SoS 247: Intergenerational Signals w/ Dr. Haley Ragsdale: A DOHaD Lens on Human Reproduction
Q: How did you get your start in anthropology and what sparked your interest in maternal and child health?
Dr. Ragsdale elaborates that her fascination began in high school, focusing on biological anthropology, which led her to explore maternal-fetal conflict through her academic journey.
