SUMMARY:CANCELED: Rob Warren: CPC and the Future of Population Research
DESCRIPTION:On February 21\, 2022\, Rob Warren\, Professor of Sociology at the University of Minnesota and the director of the Minnesota Population Center\, will present “CPC and the Future of Population Research” as part of the Carolina Population Center’s 2021-2022 Interdisciplinary Research Seminar Series. \nAbout Rob Warren: \n\nI am a sociologist\, demographer\, population health scholar\, and education policy researcher with experience and expertise in the collection\, production\, and dissemination of large-scale data products for research on health\, aging\, education\, and labor force outcomes through my NIH- and NSF-funded work on High School and Beyond (HSB)\, the Wisconsin Longitudinal Study (WLS)\, the 1940 U.S. Census\, and the IPUMS version of the Current Population Surveys (IPUMS-CPS). I am involved in the construction of the new 100% count historical Census data sets for IPUMS\, and I have two ongoing NIH-funded projects to link early 20th century U.S. Census data to (1) several modern surveys of older Americans\, including the HRS\, PSID\, and WLS and (2) recent mortality records from the Social Security Administration. \nI am currently Co-Director\, with Theresa Osypuk\, of the NICHD-funded Training Program in Population Health Science (T32HD095134). \nWith Chandra Muller\, Eric Grodsky\, and Jennifer Manly I am conducting follow-up surveys of the High School and Beyond cohort (with support from 1R01AG058719-01A1).  These ~25\,500 people were first interviewed in high school in 1980.  HS&B data – including a 2021-2022 follow-up focused on the early-life predictors of cognitive impairment – provide leverage in understanding the roles of education\, skills\, and childhood social circumstances  in shaping work\, health\, and cognitive well-being at midlife.

SUMMARY:Shaping an integrated response at the intersection of mental health\, substance use\, and HIV within the IeDEA consortium
DESCRIPTION:Kathryn Lancaster\, PhD\, MPH\nAssistant Professor in Epidemiology\nCollege of Public Health\, The Ohio State University \n Angela Parcesepe\, PhD\, MPH\, MSW \nAssistant Professor\, Department of Maternal and Child Health\, Gillings School of Global Public Health\nUniversity of North Carolina at Chapel Hill \nThe International Epidemiology Databases to Evaluate AIDS (IeDEA) consortium was established by the NIH in 2006 to provide a rich resource for globally diverse HIV data to address HIV-related research questions that were not possible to answer with currently existing individual cohorts. The IeDEA consortium collects observational data representing over 2.2 million people living with and at risk for HIV contributed by clinical centers and research groups across 44 countries and 7 geographic regions. \nIn this talk\, we will discuss the IeDEA’s consortium research at the intersection of mental health\, substance use\, and HIV treatment. Mental health and substance use disorders are among the most common comorbidities among people with HIV globally and have been associated with poor quality of life and HIV care continuum outcomes including delayed HIV diagnosis\, suboptimal ART adherence\, and virologic failure. \nThis talk will focus on mental health and substance use research priorities related to the implementation and scale up of ‘Treat All’ policies throughout sub-Saharan Africa\, the integration of mental health and substance use services at HIV clinics throughout the IeDEA consortium\, regional research examining the intersection of depression\, heavy episodic drinking\, and HIV disclosure among people with HIV in IeDEA Cameroon\, and the recent launch of longitudinal cohorts of aging people with HIV (the IeDEA Sentinel Research Network) and adolescents and young adults with HIV (AYANI) in IeDEA. Finally\, we will discuss future directions for research at the intersection of mental health\, substance use\, and HIV treatment in the IeDEA consortium and beyond. \nEmail darcommunications@nih.gov for passcode

SUMMARY:Adina Zeki Al Hazzouri: Social determinants of cognitive aging & inequalities: Challenges and Opportunities
DESCRIPTION:On November 4\, 2022\, Adina Zeki Al Hazzouri (Epidemiology) will present as part of the Carolina Population Center’s 2022-2023 Interdisciplinary Research Seminar Series. \n\n\n\nBio: Dr. Zeki Al Hazzouri is an epidemiologist and the overarching goal of her research program is to improve the understanding of how social and cardiovascular factors experienced across the life-course influence cognitive function\, Alzheimer’s disease and Alzheimer’s related dementias (AD/ADRD). An important theme of her work focuses on poverty and financial well-being as social determinants of cognitive aging. Another theme of her work also focuses on causal inference methodologies that address challenges in ADRD research including\, inverse probability weighting\, trial emulation\, and regression discontinuity designs. Her work leverages innovative methods such as pooling\, cross-walking and harmonization of existing epidemiological cohorts to address life course ADRD research questions.

SUMMARY:Sarah Burgard: Remembrance of things past? Measuring life course exposures as determinants of health
DESCRIPTION:On April 21\, 2022\, Sarah Burgard will present “Remembrance of things past? Measuring life course exposures as determinants of health” as part of the Carolina Population Center’s 2022-2023 Interdisciplinary Research Seminar Series. \nBio: I am a professor of Sociology and by courtesy\, of Epidemiology and Public Policy. I am also a Research Professor in the Population Studies Center and Research Affiliate in the Survey Research Center\, both at the Institute for Social Research\, and am the incoming director of the Population Studies Center. I have a publication record in social and health science journals in the areas of the life course determinants of health and wellbeing in later life and related health disparities\, and have received funding for my research and for data collection in these areas from NIH and private foundations. I am currently an affiliate and Advisory Panel member for the Michigan Center for the Demography of Aging (MICDA)\, a Technical Review Committee member of the National Longitudinal Studies program of the Bureau of Labor Statistics\, a former member on the Population Association Board of Directors. I also led implementation of the Institute for Social Research Strategic plan for Diversity\, Equity and Inclusion for three years. \nI conduct research on the social stratification of aging and health with population-based survey data\, and have published extensively on the social factors underlying health disparities by socioeconomic status\, gender\, and race/ethnicity across the life course. I have focused particularly on the links between employment and health in later life\, including mental health\, chronic disease and overall health status\, and health behaviors. Some of my recent research and funding has centered on understanding these questions in the context of economic recessions\, which disrupt career\, economic\, and health paths for many adults\, but especially for socioeconomically-marginalized groups. I am PI of the 2020 Americans’ Changing Lives Study ACLLIFE wave\, which will collect full retrospective life histories including extensive information about life events from a cohort now in their late 50s\, and a PI of the Michigan Recession and Recovery Study\, a panel survey of adults in Southeast Michigan that has been tracking the life events and mental health of these individuals in the wake of the Great Recession of 2007-2009. Using these data\, I have published on the influences of job loss\, financial shocks\, debt\, housing instability\, and material hardship\, with a focus on creating life course measures of cumulative disadvantage for which retrospective or prospective life history data are essential.
