Roland J. Thorpe, Jr., PhD, professor in the department of health, behavior, and society; and co-director of the DrPH concentration in health equity and social justice, Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health, will present Approaches to achieve health equity in aging.

The Social Demography Seminar (SDS) series at the Center for Population and Development Studies provides a lively forum for scholars from across the university to discuss in-progress social scientific and population research. Social demography includes work that uses demographic methods to describe and explain the distribution of social goods across populations. The series offers presentations on a wide variety of topics such as family, gender, race/ethnicity, population health—including mortality, morbidity, and functional health—inequality, immigration, fertility, and the institutional arrangements that shape and respond to population processes.
