Summary

Black Americans and those of lower socioeconomic position (SEP) are at higher risk for multiple diseases of aging and shorter lifespans, but the psychophysiological mechanisms that may account for these effects are not clear. The overarching objective of this pilot grant is to improve our understanding of the proximal social exposures and subsequent psychobiological processes that contribute to racial and socioeconomic health disparities. Precisely understanding what these mutable social and psychological mechanisms are is necessary in order to identify intervention targets at the level of the individual.
