She will be describing her current research on the social determinants of health, and more specifically phenotypic-related racial discrimination. Her findings underscore the critical role that physical features play in shaping the quality of one's social interactions and the importance of these interactions for individual well being. She will also be answering any questions you may have about graduate school!
