Dr. Walter's interest in food studies developed from her scholarly focus on gender and family issues worldwide. She is specifically interested in the significance of commensality (eating together) as a practice of social solidarity.

Angie Bauer-Dantoin, Professor and Chair of Human Biology (bauera@uwgb.edu). Research in my laboratory focuses on the potential health effects of exposure to endocrine disruptors.
Currently, two lines of research that focus on endocrine disruption are underway. They include 1) an assessment of estrogenicity in groundwater from rural areas in northeastern Wisconsin, in order to determine whether levels of endocrine disruptors change in response to season and proximity to farming operations; and 2) an examination of the impact of endocrine disruptors on skeletal development.
