Who Are We?

The Center for Integrative Social Medicine and Population Health (CISMPH) brings together students, clinicians, and researchers dedicated to reimagining how medicine engages with society. We aim to bridge the gap between clinical care delivery and the broader social determinants of health (SDOH) that influence health outcomes, including income inequality, insurance coverage, and access to timely, affordable care.

Our work focuses on three core areas: (1) applying quantitative research methods in epidemiology, health economics, and clinical research to analyze shifts in population-level disease burden; (2) translating empirical findings into op-eds and commentaries that advocate for policies and legislative frameworks to address these disparities; and (3) partnering with community stakeholders to ensure the equitable distribution of social and health resources, driving action at both local and national levels.
