SUMMARY:Grand Rounds: Achieving Health Equity: Tools for a National Campaign Against Racism
DESCRIPTION:Achieving Health Equity: Tools for a National Campaign Against Racism  Dr. Camara Phyllis Jones\, MD\, MPH\, PhD Research Director in the Division of Adult and Community Health\, National Center for Chronic Disease Prevention and Health Promotion Immediate Past President of the American Public Health Association  Camara Phyllis Jones\, MD\, MPH\, PhD\, isresearch director on social determinants of health and equity in the Division of Adult and Community Health\, National Center for Chronic Disease Prevention and Health Promotion. Dr. Jones received her B.A. degree (MolecularBiology) from Wellesley College\, her M.D. from the Stanford University School of Medicine\, and both her MPH and PhD (Epidemiology) degrees from theJohns Hopkins School of Hygiene and Public Health. She also completed residency training in general preventive medicine (Johns Hopkins School of Hygiene and Public Health\, Baltimore\, Maryland) and in family practice (Residency Program in Social Medicine\, Bronx\, New York).  Dr. Jones is a family physician and epidemiologist whose work focuses on the impact of racism on the health and well-being of the nation. She seeks to broaden the national health debate to include not only universal access to high quality health care but also attention to the social determinants of health (including poverty) and the social determinants of equity (including racism). As a methodologist\, she has developed new ways for comparing full distributions of data (rather than means or proportions) in order to investigate population-level risk factors and propose population-level interventions. As a social epidemiologist\, her work on race-associated differences in health outcomesgoes beyond documenting those differences to vigorously investigating the structural causes of the differences. As a teacher\, her allegories on raceand racism illuminate topics that are otherwise difficult for many Americans to understand or discuss.  Dr. Jones was an assistant professor at theHarvard School of Public Health from 1994 to 2000\, and is currently an adjunct associate professor at both the Morehouse School of Medicine and the Rollins School of Public Health. She is a member of the World Health Organization‚Äôs Scientific Resource Group on Equity and Health and the National Board of Public Health Examiners\, and recently completed service on the Executive Board of the American Public Health Association\, the board of directors of the American College of Epidemiology\, and the board of directors ofthe National Black Women’s Health Project.
