20855 - Morbidity and Mortality
Sat, August 9, 2:00 to 3:30pm, West Tower, Hyatt Regency Chicago, Floor: Concourse Level/Bronze, Gold CoastDescription
Studying morbidity and mortality disparities allows us to understand how structural inequalities get ‘under the skin’, ultimately affecting our physiological health, wellbeing, and even survival. This session features novel insights into inequalities in risks of morbidity and mortality, attending to education-, race-, nativity-, gender-, and place-based inequalities and their intersections. Featuring high-quality hierarchical population-based data, advanced modelling, and longitudinal analyses, the results from these studies advance our understanding of health disparities in fundamental ways.
