“What to expect when you’re expecting: Peripartum adaptations and how stress systems brace for impact”

This seminar series serves as an opportunity to encourage invited speakers and audience members to go beyond the traditional seminar and emphasize the impact of stress and resilience neuroscience research on society. We aim to highlight research identifying contributions of stress and resilience to health outcomes, with special emphasis on research that can connect to racial inequities.
