With a raised public consciousness, American University joined the national conversation through the development of a Center for Food Studies. Launched by Jeffrey Kaplan, professor of biology, the interdisciplinary center coordinates collaborative research, programs and more than a dozen academic courses. The program draws on AU faculty and students who carry out research on the social, political, and economic aspects of food.
