“I would like to have attended this event in person; however, budget constraints limit and restrict our travel. Thanks so much for providing this webcast. Dr. Krieger has written extensively on social inequities in health. Her work is illuminating and thought-provoking. There is profound clarity in her research to help guide efforts to understand and address social determinants of health. My work involves addressing health inequities and improving the health of Oklahoma’s diverse minority populations. The presentation in this webcast will inform my efforts.”
