Adam Roth

Adam Roth joined the OSU Sociology Department in 2022 after completing his graduate studies at Washington State University and a postdoctoral fellowship at Indiana University. His research leverages a broad array of data (e.g., prospective surveys, time-use diaries, geo-coded mortality records, neuroimaging phenotypes) to explore the types of communities, social networks, and families within which individuals are embedded and how these social contexts influence health and well-being. Adam is currently (2022-2027) the principal investigator of an NIH study called the Social Environment and Cognitive Health in Urban and Rural Areas (SECHURA).
