In this thesis, supervised by CENIEH researchers Ana Mateos and Jesús Rodríguez, a study of the energy expenditure of the locomotion of women in different physiological states is carried out
Olalla Prado Nóvoa has defended today her doctoral thesis on energy expenditure of the locomotion of women in different physiological states with a perspective from the behavior ecology, directed by Ana Mateos and Jesús Rodríguez, researchers at the National Center for Research on Human Evolution (CENIEH). supervised by Ana Mateos and Jesús Rodríguez, researchers at Centro Nacional de Investigación sobre la Evolución Humana (CENIEH).
In this doctoral thesis, through the analysis of data collected from 125 current humans, it has been studied the consequences that certain behaviors and some physiological changes that women experience during their reproductive cycle in metabolism and in human ecology have been studied. that is, in the ability of Homo sapiens to adapt and survive in an environment.
