Research Summary: My research interests fall into related categories: the social determinants of health/mental health for BIPOC individuals, families and communities and developing and evaluating anti-racist and inclusive higher education environments.

LESLIE ANN KNAPP
Professor, Anthropology Department
Research Summary: My research has primarily focused on major histocompatibility complex (MHC) genes, which are critical for immune response. I study how MHC genes vary in humans and primates and how MHC diversity is generated and maintained via disease resistance, sexual selection, inbreeding avoidance and reproductive failure. I am also interested in other genetic polymorphisms such as dopamine receptor genes, which are believed to influence primate behavior.
Equipment:
I oversee a fully equipped molecular genetics lab with with standard molecular genetics equipment, including sterile PCR workstations, thermal cyclers, equipment for gel analyses, incubators, centrifuges, ultra-pure water filtration system and documentation systems. The laboratory also includes equipment for endocrine (ELISA-based) assays.

Assistant Professor, Anthropology Department
Co-director, Orang Asli Health and Lifeways Project (OAHeLP)
Research Summary: I am a behavioral ecologist interested in how interactions between social behavior, culture, and the environment shape human health and life history. My current research focuses on the evolutionary basis of variation in contemporary human health and aging outcomes across populations and individuals, particularly those experiencing rapid environmental and social change. My lab addresses these topics using ethnographic fieldwork and biomedical surveillance in small-scale subsistence societies.
