Social Epidemiology Quantitative Methodology Demography Sociology of Aging
|
|
My interests are broadly in social epidemiology, the demography of aging, and statistical methods.
I study how social and behavioral factors, like race, socioeconomic status, stress, social support, etc. influence health and how they do so differently across the lives of individuals and across time.
In this process, I spend a considerable amount of time developing and examining statistical methods to make full use of the capabilities of, and handle the limitations of, social science data.
