Amanda Veile studies maternal and child health from an evolutionary and cross-cultural perspective, focusing on breastfeeding, childbirth practices (including cesarean birth), infant feeding, and child growth in Indigenous and traditional communities in Latin America, such as the Yucatec Maya, Tsimane, and Toba/Qom. Her work combines biological anthropology with public health topics like infant nutrition, birth mode, and childhood illness, often situating these issues within debates about human evolutionary history and modernization.
Publication output peaked in 2018 with a burst of 10 papers and has since settled into a slower, steady pace of about 1-3 publications per year through 2025.
