Interpersonal discrimination contributes to health inequalities for disadvantaged groups across numerous stigmatized identities. In this talk, Prof. Laura Richman and Prof. Micah Lattanner will discuss a theoretical framework for understanding the effects of discrimination on health and will present some recent empirical findings in support of their model. They will then discuss aspirations for the field including innovations in study design that incorporate multiple levels of discrimination (e.g., structural stigma), consider multiple identities, and measure a wider range of objective physical health outcomes. Finally, they will address policy and legal avenues to address health inequity in an administration that is hostile to these scholarly pursuits.

The lecture is free of charge and only takes place online.
