Health Disparities Research

While some Americans enjoy better health than ever, certain groups of people suffer serious illness more often. Health disparities are found in different racial or ethnic groups, in rural versus urban populations, and in different age groups and genders. Research looks at the complex causes, and studies ways to close the gap.
