Presenting on the cultural determinants of health, Portland, Maine, Sept. 23 (virtual, private)
September 23, 2025 @ 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm
As part of MaineHealth’s Grand Rounds series, I’ll be sharing the results of ongoing research conducted by Nationhood Lab and by myself and researchers at HealthPartners Institute and the University of Illinois-Chicago on the cultural determinants of health, via the American Nations model, with doctors and other staff of Maine’s largest hospital and medical network. This virtual event is invitation only and generally confined to MaineHealth network member employees.
