SUMMARY:Caleb Finch – The Gero-Exposome\, a life history approach to diversity of human longevity
DESCRIPTION:From egg to exit\, human life history is determined by environmental interactions with our genome (GxE). The Gero-Exposome provides a framework for analyzing GxE interactions with life style\, biomes\, and systemic factors. Lifespans difference of 15 years across the socio-economic status (SES) have corresponding differences in the onset of cardiovascular disease and dementia. Moreover\, SES influences the development of brain and vasculature\, by greater gestational exposure to air pollution and cigarette smoke in low SES. Multiple postnatal phases have environmental influences throughout the lifespan. As an experimental model for these complexities\, mice were gestationally exposed to air pollution. Young adults had more body fat and glucose intolerance\, while brains had lower levels of hypothalamic neuropeptides and neuronal stem cells in the hippocampus. These findings are relevant to the multi-generational stability of SES differences in health and lifespan\, for which the GxE basis is undefined.

SUMMARY:Jason de León: Soldiers and Kings
DESCRIPTION:Political instability\, poverty\, climate change\, and the insatiable appetite for cheap labor all fuel clandestine movement across borders. As those borders harden\, the demand for smugglers who aid migrants across them increases every year. Yet the real lives and work of smugglers–or coyotes\, or guides\, as they are often known by the migrants who hire their services–are only ever reported on from a distance\, using tired tropes and stereotypes\, often depicted as boogie men and violent warlords. In an effort to better understand this essential yet extralegal billion dollar global industry\, internationally recognized anthropologist and expert Jason De León embedded with a group of smugglers moving migrants across Mexico over the course of seven years. \nThe result of this unique and extraordinary access is SOLDIERS AND KINGS: the first ever in-depth\, character-driven look at human smuggling. It is a heart-wrenching and intimate narrative that revolves around the life and death of one coyote who falls in love and tries to leave smuggling behind. In a powerful\, original voice\, De León expertly chronicles the lives of low-level foot soldiers breaking into the smuggling game\, and morally conflicted gang leaders who oversee rag-tag crews of guides and informants along the migrant trail. SOLDIERS AND KINGS is not only a ground-breaking up-close glimpse of a difficult-to-access world\, it is a masterpiece of narrative nonfiction.
