Nutrition and Developmental Programming: From Fetal Origins to Lifelong Health

Introduction to Developmental Biology → Public Health Implications and Interventions

This learning path explores how nutrition during critical developmental windows shapes long-term health and disease risk. It covers fundamental concepts in developmental biology, the Barker hypothesis and DOHaD framework, mechanisms of fetal programming, and the link to metabolic diseases. The path emphasizes the importance of basic physiology as a foundation for understanding these complex interactions.
