Study of adolescents’ daily activities and the risk to be assaulted (Douglas Wiebe presentation)
Panel: Neighborhood indicators for infant and child health (Health Journalism 2011)
Speaker: Douglas Wiebe, Ph.D., Department of Biostatistics & Epidemiology , University of Pennsylvania
Panel description: Where people grow up – the safety of the neighborhood, access to good food and health care, and the role models around them – shape their childhood and their future health. But how much? This panel will take on that question, from research to mapping. One researcher discusses his work mapping minute-to-minute gun violence and how it is reshaping the boundaries of neighborhood influence on health, while a pediatrician shares his perspective on grappling with food insecurity and traumatic stress in the second-hungriest congressional district in the country.
