Interdisciplinary Seminar in Health Disparities: Healthcare Delivery in the Age of COVID-19
December 8, 2020 @ 9:00 am - 10:00 am
This interdisciplinary Seminar will hold intensive and collaborative sessions focused on health outcome and health delivery problems resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic. Our main research topic is health disparities in healthcare delivery and how the COVID-19 pandemic shapes systems and impacts resources, including human resources. Our main product from these collaborative interdisciplinary and multi-organizational work groups of health disparities researchers and students will be a focused grant proposal aimed at examining the impact that the COVID-19 pandemic has had on care delivery and home health caregivers’ own health outcomes. All seminars will be virtual and will have accompanying information and resources provided through Sakai. https://www.shepscenter.unc.edu/programs-projects/program-in-health-disparities-prihd-research/
