We explore aging as a culmination of all biological and social processes across your entire life course. We study the long-term effects of exposures to economic hardships and social disadvantage, from the prenatal period and beyond. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6459ba75120166019b479b50/fe71301b-ac40-4e65-8ea6-7ea56d5b2740/image-asset.jpg Home - Exploring the interplay between our social and cellular worlds to improve the quality and quantity of human lifespan https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6459ba75120166019b479b50/607a20af-9c6a-4238-899d-29e14e04a2a0/Schmitz+standing+2.jpg Home - about us Meet the people behind the datapoints.

Schmitz Assistant Professor, La Follette School of Public Affairs University of Wisconsin-Madison My research uses data and methods from economics, sociology, population health, and genomics to examine how social inequality erodes health at a molecular level and speeds up the aging process. I take a life course view of aging that considers how social disadvantage shapes health from the prenatal period through adulthood and into old age. I work with students individually and in teams, combining expertise from our lab with other experts in the field. I strive to create a welcoming atmosphere where students feel safe asking questions, taking risks, and pushing themselves to grow as researchers. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6459ba75120166019b479b50/248c8478-e481-48e6-a6ba-49fb78caf472/image-asset.jpg About Us - Integrative thinking We integrate theory and methods from multiple disciplines to produce cutting-edge work at the intersection of social science and biology. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6459ba75120166019b479b50/bdbe9b3e-82fb-42eb-a57b-31d54bcc3731/image-asset.jpg About Us - Creative problem solving We value openness to new ideas and the ability to come up with innovative solutions in the face of challenging research problems. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6459ba75120166019b479b50/47ebf745-0ef3-49db-b65a-ed752be36e68/image-asset.jpg About Us - Attention to detail We strive to produce rigorous empirical work that pushes the field forward.
