We are a team of undergraduate researchers at UCLA studying issues at the intersection of biology and society with a special interest in food justice and health equity. We hope to identify the risks of EDC exposure through food packaging and offer possible solutions in reducing exposure. This firm’s goal is to provide evidence-based insights to community leaders, business executives, and policymakers to enable and assist the fight to dismantle food apartheids. Our research findings are presented in a variety of media formats including articles, interviews, podcasts, and videos that can be used to inform change makers on critical issues and serve as educational materials for a broader public audience.
DISCLAIMER: We are not a real consulting firm. This website is a project created by undergraduate students at UCLA for our capstone project under the course Society and Genetics 108.
