Monday May 6th: Why We Eat What We Eat at The Museum of Natural History

In an informal, salon-style setting, participants of this lecture will be able to probe the science, psychology, and social norms that shape the food choices we make—choices that have grown more complex than at any other time in our species’ evolution. Experts will lead each session, with participants encouraged to bring in their questions, shopping lists, myths, and opinions about food and health, longevity, and taste, and come away with decisive understanding about the food we eat.

Drew Ramsey, MD, of Columbia University’s College of Physicians and Surgeons and Amy Bentley, Ph.D. of the Department of Nutrition, Food Studies and Public Health at NYU discuss the societal and health implications of our food choices.
