Speaker
Margo Brooks CarthonDate & time
Location
Dr. Margo Brooks Carthon is the Tyson Family Endowed Term Chair for Gerontological Research at the University of Pennsylvania School of Nursing. She was one of the first nurse researchers to demonstrate empirical relationships between the quality of nursing care and racial inequities in outcomes. Based on her findings, Dr. Brooks Carthon aims to determine the nursing care needs of vulnerable older adults and recommend ways to change outcomes.
Real World Perspectives on Poverty Solutions introduces key issues regarding the causes and consequences of poverty through an in-person lecture series featuring experts in policy and practice from across the nation. Our goal is to help build a broad community of learners to engage in these issues together.
This series is free and open to the public, but is also a one-credit course available for U-M students during the Fall 2024 semester. Students can enroll in SWK 503 001 or U-M class 26997 on Canvas.
This event is sponsored by the University of Michigan School of Nursing.
