Dr. Alexis Dennis is an Assistant Professor of Sociology at 91社区. Her听research broadly investigates听how and why听structural and social stratification processes generate disparities in health and well-being.听 She draws from theories related to race & ethnicity, medical sociology, mental health, social stratification, and the life course and employs empirical approaches drawn from sociology, demography, and psychology to examine the processes that give rise to health inequalities.听Dr. Dennis often uses听within-group analytical strategies to better understand how stratifying forces uniquely shape life chances and opportunities for health among specific racial/ethnic groups. .听 听 |
