Delaney Glass is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Anthropology at the University of Toronto. A mixed-methods biocultural anthropologist and human biologist, her work focuses on Arab communities in North America and Jordan, examining how early life adversity and social inequalities impact child and adolescent health outcomes including linear growth, pubertal development, and mental wellbeing through frameworks from medical anthropology, evolutionary biology, and qualitative health research.
- Current research includes psychosocial and energetic drivers of adolescent development using longitudinal data from Vietnam, the U.S., and Argentina
- SAWA (Social Safety, Agency, and Well-being among Adolescents) project integrating Social Safety Theory and biosocial embodiment
- Multigenerational studies of adolescence in Jordan and Canada, combining qualitative analysis with biomarkers of stress and cardiovascular health
Her lab, BLISS (Biocultural Lab for the study of Inequality and Social Stress), trains students in minimally invasive biomarkers, anthropometrics, and mixed-ethnographic methods. She supervises graduate and undergraduate research assistants, including Dominick Roussel (PhD candidate) and students working on autism sleep interventions, social determinants of health, and bodily autonomy in conflict settings.
