Nascut(a) in: 1964

Interese: sociologie, gerontologie, statistica, demografie

Detalii:
Interesul meu este in modul in care fortele societatii influenteaza starea fizica a oamenilor care se apropie de pensionare.

Lucrez ca un statistician pentru citeva proiecte in domeniul medical unde pregatesc si analizez date despre starea fizica a oamenilor batrini.

Details:
I am interested in the social-based processes by which older adults' health deteriorates: work, work conditions, health behaviors, family stressors, etc.

Also, I provide statistical and computing research support to multiple research projects that deal with the health care of the elderly.
