Faculty of Social Sciences

2020 Labelle Lecture

The 2020 Labelle Lecture will be presented virtually on Nov. 11, 2020 by Dr. Tiffany Green, an economist and population health scientist and a nationally recognized expert in racial/ethnic and nativity disparities in reproductive health.

Oct 20, 2020

 

Dr. Green is an Assistant Professor of Population Health Sciences and Obstetrics and Gynecology at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. Her research focuses primarily on understanding the individual-, family-, and structural-level determinants of disparities in women’s health and birth outcomes. Her mission is to shed light on how and why Black women, regardless of socioeconomic status,  experience the worst maternal and child health outcomes of any racial/ethnic group—and what evidence-based solutions might ameliorate these persistent inequalities in health and wellbeing. She is also currently investigating the contributions of  racial/ethnic bias to health-related disparities in childbearing and other populations.

The lecture will take place from 3 pm to 5 pm. More information and registration details will be available soon.
