SUMMARY:Thomas McDade: Biosocial 2.0:  Future directions for research at the interface of the biological and social sciences
DESCRIPTION:On October 1\, 2021\, Thom McDade\, a biological anthropologist and the Director of the Laboratory for Human Biology Research at Northwestern University\, will present “Biosocial 2.0:  Future directions for research at the interface of the biological and social sciences” as part of the Carolina Population Center’s 2021-2022 Interdisciplinary Research Seminar Series. \nThom McDade is a biological anthropologist specializing in human population biology. His work is primarily concerned with the dynamic interrelationships among society\, biology and health over the life course\, with an emphasis on life course approaches to stress and the human immune system. The development and application of minimally-invasive methods for integrating physiological measures into population-based research is also a major area of interest. Prior research in Samoa\, and ongoing research in Bolivia and Ecuador\, investigates how local cultural transitions associated with globalization affect human development and health\, while research in the Philippines is exploring the long term developmental consequences of early nutritional and microbial environments. He is currently applying conceptual and methodological tools from this work to US-based research on health disparities\, with an emphasis on the potential contributions of stress and environments in infancy. \nAbstract: \nNovel methods for measuring human biology and health in non-clinical settings are generating new opportunities for discovery at the interface of the social and biological sciences.  In this seminar I highlight how biosocial approaches have enriched our explanatory and conceptual frameworks\, and I underscore how work in this area can fundamentally change how we think about human biology and the origins of social inequalities in health. \nWe record as many seminars as possible. You can see previous events here.

SUMMARY:Marcia (Marcy) J. Carlson and Peter Fallesen: Longer lives\, Later Births: Generational Overlap in Denmark and the U.S.
DESCRIPTION:On October 8\, 2021\, Marcy Carlson\, Professor of Sociology at the University of Wisconsin-Madison\, and Peter Fallesen (Rockwool Foundation and Stockholm University) will present as part of the Carolina Population Center’s 2021-2022 Interdisciplinary Research Seminar Series. \nCarlson’s primary research interests center on the associations between family contexts and the wellbeing of parents and children. She has explored the changing composition of families and aspects of their functioning. Her early work explored how family structure was associated with child and adolescent being\, identifying fathers’ involvement with children as a key mechanism by which family structure affects offspring. Much of her recent work is focused on growing family diversity and complexity\, particularly with respect to fertility patterns and fatherhood\, as well as how family change is linked with inequality in both the U.S. and cross-national contexts. \nFallesen is an associate professor (docent) of sociology in the LNU/level-of-living group. Until December 2016\, he was a postdoctoral researcher at the same place. He received my PhD in sociology from the University of Copenhagen in February 2015. He is also a Research Professor at the Rockwool Foundation Research Unit in Copenhagen and a research affiliate at the Center for Demography and Ecology\, University of Wisconsin – Madison. He previously held visiting positions at Yale University\, UC Berkeley\, and European University Institute. \nWe record as many seminars as possible. You can see previous events here.

SUMMARY:Yamnia I. Cortés: Women’s reproductive health across the life course: A marker for cardiovascular disease risk in later life?
DESCRIPTION:On October 15\, 2021\, Yamnia I. Cortés\, Assistant Professor of Cardiovascular Nursing\, Health Disparities\, Women’s Health at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill\, will present “Women’s reproductive health across the life course: A marker for cardiovascular disease risk in later life?” as part of the Carolina Population Center’s 2021-2022 Interdisciplinary Research Seminar Series. \n\nDr. Cortés obtained her BA in Biology and completed a concentration in Latino/a Studies at Williams College in 2006. She completed her MPH in the Department of Sociomedical Sciences at Columbia University in 2009\, where she also received her BS/MS in Nursing and FNP-BC. In 2015\, she received her PhD at Columbia University School of Nursing. She was a Postdoctoral Fellow at the University of Pittsburgh Graduate School of Public Health from 2015-2018 in Cardiovascular Epidemiology. Dr. Cortés leads an interdisciplinary research program focusing on cardiovascular disease in midlife women. She has a longstanding interest in understanding how women’s reproductive health may be an indicator of future cardiovascular disease risk\, including measures of subclinical vascular disease. Another area of research focuses on racial/ethnic disparities in women’s reproductive and cardiovascular health\, as well as the role of sociocultural factors. \nAbstract: \nWomen’s reproductive health across the life course: A marker for cardiovascular disease risk in later life? \nIn this presentation Dr. Cortés will provide an overview of the current evidence linking reproductive health\, from menarche thru postmenopause\, to cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk in midlife women and beyond. Using examples from existing literature and her program of research\, she will discuss potential mechanisms and interventions to address inequities in reproductive health and CVD. \n\nWe record as many seminars as possible.

SUMMARY:Will Dow: Female Sex Workers in the Time of COVID: A Longitudinal Study in Tanzania
DESCRIPTION:On October 29\, 2021\, Will Dow\, the Director of the Center on the Economics and Demography of Aging and a Professor of Health Policy and Management at the University of California-Berkeley School of Public Health\, will present “Female Sex Workers in the Time of COVID: A Longitudinal Study in Tanzania” as part of the Carolina Population Center’s 2021-2022 Interdisciplinary Research Seminar Series. \n\nDow\, a celebrated scholar of the economic aspects of health insurance\, health behaviors\, and health and demographic outcomes\, joined the Berkeley faculty in 2004. Since 2005\, he has been the founding associate director of the Berkeley Population Center and\, since 2013\, the director of the Center on the Economics and Demography of Aging. He has also served at the School as division head of Health Policy and Management and as the associate dean for research\, and in 2018-19 served as Interim Dean of the School of Public Health.
