Landscapes of Population Health
Landscapes of Population Health ("Landscapes") is an interdisciplinary research team of historians, social-behavioral scientists , and statisticians, merging expertise in the study of American society, population health, and cutting-edge data science. Through our collaborations, we aim to clarify the social drivers and biological mechanisms that underlie variation in population health.
Surveys of Consumers
Founded in 1946, the Surveys of Consumers (SCA) promotes the importance of consumer spending and saving decisions in determining the course of the national economy. Each month, the survey interviews a minimum of 800 people to collect samples representative of all American households. SCA is proven to be an accurate indicator of the national economy’s future course.
