Packed Lunch: Breastfeeding
Wednesday 5 October 2011, 13.00-13.45

Feed your curiosity at our daytime discussions. Drop in to hear
local scientists in conversation about their latest experiments,
life in the lab and why science matters to everyone, all in the
space of your lunch hour. Bring your sarnies with you to eat while
you listen.
The Department of Health recommends exclusive
breastfeeding for the first six months of life. But is this
supported by the best available scientific evidence? Mary
Fewtrell is a paediatrician at the UCL Institute of Child
Health, who has spent her career investigating the links between
infant nutrition and health, both short-term and in later
life. Join her in conversation about the intersection of
scientific evidence, opinion and policy.
Speaker: Mary Fewtrell,
paediatrician at the UCL Institute of Child Health.
