The Network on Life Course Health Dynamics & Disparities in 21st Century America website was launched on October 6, 2015.  Bob Hummer is CPC’s PI on this collaborative project, working with colleagues at the University of Southern California, University of Texas at Austin, and the University of Michigan.

The Network on Life Course Health Dynamics & Disparities seeks to form a network of junior and senior scientists and key institutions at the forefront of research on the social determinants of US population health and health disparities. The network’s core activities are strategically aimed at significantly improving scientific understanding of important trends and disparities in population health. The network is funded by the National Institute on Aging.

Bob is organizing the agenda for a network meeting to immediately follow the 2016 PAA Annual Meeting in Washington (April 2-3).  Information about their activities can be found at: http://isr.umich.edu/nlchdd/.
