Featured guests: Ameenah Shakir: 20th Century U.S. historian of race and medicine at the University of Houston Cat Bohannon: author of "Eve: How the Female Body Drove 200 Million Years of Human Evolution" The discussion will be moderated by Pam Belluck, New York Times staff writer whose honors include a Pulitzer Prize and the Victor Cohn Prize for Excellence in Medical Science Reporting.
