E3 Nutrition Lab

The founder and director of the E3 Nutrition Lab is Lora Iannotti, associate professor and associate dean for public health. The three “E”s represent the lab’s principles for nutrition interventions: environmentally sustainable, economically affordable, and evolutionarily appropriate. E3 is a transdisciplinary laboratory at the Brown School that is undertaking research around the world to address “hidden hunger”— poverty-related nutritional deficiencies in mothers and young children.
