HCRC Highlights

New and Compelling Research

In a just-released study in JAMA Network Open, historical redlining in NYC was found to increase stroke prevalence even after accounting for social determinants (SD) and cardio risk factors. A rare feature was that all Healthy People SD were measured, and SES (education, income) mattered most. It's time to test this in education.

SPR 2023 Conference

Last week, the HCRC attended the 31st annual Society for Prevention Research in Washington D.C. This year's theme was The Role of Prevention Science in Achieving Social Justice and Health Equity for All. Mirinda Morency presented her findings on the impact of school quality in childhood on dimensions of well-being in midlife. Marley Loveman-Brown and Rachel Kritzik presented their findings on the harm of discrimination and the benefits of the Child-Parent Center program on midlife cardiovascular health.
