The Developmental Origins of Health and Disease (DOHaD) theory describes how early life exposures can impact offspring disease risk and health outcomes. Common early life exposures include maternal stress and obesity. Additionally, early life nutrition during lactation can affect offspring health. This work focuses on understanding the mechanisms that impact offspring health by examining fetal and lactational physiology using mouse models and clinical data.
