Health Equity Seminars

The Cornell Center for Health Equity sponsors monthly Health Equity seminars featuring presenters affiliated with both the New York City and Ithaca campuses. This forum is intended to update Center members on current work and provide an opportunity to obtain multi-disciplinary input on works in progress. Partners may share early ideas, design dilemmas, methodological innovations, plans to address reviewer concerns, and more on topics related to health equity research and programming. Sessions are held by remotely by webinar to allow for broader participation.

The vision of the Cornell Center for Health Equity is to nurture durable academic-community partnerships to inform our research agenda, integrate community perspectives into our research, and develop an infrastructure to disseminate and implement the results of our work with the overarching goal of achieving health equity locally, regionally, and nationally.
