PRB

In this Nov. 14, 2024 webinar, two distinguished researchers discussed how U.S. state policies and systems can affect racial and regional inequities in health and longevity.

• Tyson H. Brown (Duke University) focused on innovative and best practices for measuring and modeling state-level structural racism to advance aging health research.
• Jennifer Karas Montez (Syracuse University) summarized findings from recent studies that have connected the dots between changes in states’ policy contexts in recent decades and changes in population health.

This webinar was hosted by PRB and the Coordinating Center for the Centers on the Demography and Economics of Aging and Alzheimer’s Disease and Related Dementias, with funding from the National Institute on Aging.
