Wellness Wednesday: Circumcision, Mood-Immune Link, Health Care

11:00

Circumcision is a delicate procedure, and a delicate topic of conversation. For some, it's an important tradition; for others, a form of mutilation. This hour we'll examine its declining rates in the US. We'll also talk about a newly found interaction between our immune systems and our psychology, and get a guide to the health care exchange marketplace.

Guests

  • Doug Diekema, Director of Education at the Treuman Katz Center for Pediatric Bioethics, member of the American Academy of Pediatrics Task Force on Circumcision
  •  Jonathan Godbout, associate professor in the department of neuroscience at OSU
  • Anne Filipic, President of Enroll America
