Episode Overview: In this episode, we interview Dr. Jeremy Coplan, Professor of Psychiatry, Psychiatry specialist, and Director of the Division of Neuro-psycho-pharmacology, at SUNY Downstate Medical Center in Brooklyn.

We also explore the connection between early-life stress during critical periods of neurodevelopment and the emergence of obesity and insulin resistance which might develop into diabetes.
