Mark Daniel

Chercheur associé (trad)

Mark Daniel, et l’équipe qu’il dirige, s’intéresse aux composantes sociales et à leurs effets sur la santé, plus particulièrement aux mécanismes biopsychosociaux qui font que le statut socioéconomique ou la position dans la hiérarchie sociale affectent la santé. Les résultats de ses travaux ont des implications tant au niveau de la santé qu’au niveau des politiques sociales.

Intérêts de recherche : Santé des population – épidémiologie sociale – médecine psychosomatique – prévention des maladies et promotion de la santé

haut de page

With expertise in the areas of social epidemiology and disease prevention, Mark Daniel's research targets a multi-level understanding of the biological pathways between social and physical environs and human health, social standing in multiple stratification systems, contextual/social stressors, allostatic load and chronic stress, and psychosocial mediators/modifiers of the link between context, health behaviour and outcomes including diabetes, cardiovascular disease, metabolic syndrome "X", and HIV/AIDS.

His substantive interests include methodological considerations in the design and analysis of cluster trials in field settings, behavioural and psychosomatic medicine, and the impact of macro and meso system influences on health at individual and aggregate levels of analysis. He is engaged in environmental measurement development for neighbourhood and household assessments, the application of geographic information systems and geo-spatial methods to multilevel health surveys, contextual effects on health behaviour including dietary fat consumption, physical activity and smoking, and research on biomarkers for estimating the impact of chronic stressors. His work has been funded by the Canadian Institutes of Health Research, the National Institutes of Health, Centers for Disease Control, and the National Health & Medical Research Council of Australia.
