Health Geography: How Place Affects Health

Health Geography:  How Place Affects Health

David Haynes is an assistant professor with the Institute for Health Informatics at the University of Minnesota. He received his PhD. from the University of Iowa in health geography, his Masters at St. Mary's University, and his Bachelors at Coe College. His current research focuses on how unequal access to care creates health and cancer inequities for minority populations. He does this by using computer mapping software to research how place affects health. His work uses spatial data to make cool maps that communicate this knowledge of health gaps to health researchers, practitioners, and broader communities.

Come hear about Dr. Haynes' journey to Health Geography and learn about the cutting edge work he’s doing at the intersection of place and health!
