  • Lecture: Multi-level etiologies of health in diverse population, Part 1: Social determinants of health

    Social determinants of health are the conditions in which people are born, grow, work, live, and age, including education, wealth, occupation, neighborhood of residence, and the experience of racism. These factors are increasingly recognized as critical upstream influences that drive individual level health, as well as differences in health across groups. This lecture will provide an overview of what is known about the role of social determinants and their relationship to clinical research.
