Summary

I am an epidemiologist and historian interested in anthropometry, body height, obesity and neonatal health on the one hand, and historical epidemiology (past and present epidemics and pandemics, etc.) on the other. I am leading a research group at the University of Zurich at the Institute of Evolutionary Medicine.
