Helen C.S. Meier, PhD, MPH is an Assistant Research Scientist in the Population, Neurodevelopment and Genetics Program at the University of Michigan's Institute for Social Research. Broadly, her research examines how social vulnerabilities become biological vulnerabilities resulting in health disparities. She is an epidemiologist and uses a life course framework to understand the molecular pathways by which social and environmental exposures occurring throughout life get “under the skin” to affect adult and later life health. Dr. Meier is specifically interested in the biology of immune aging and immunological dysfunction as key factors in the aging process.
