Dr. Anneliese Luck is an assistant professor in the School of Public Affairs and Administration (SPAA) at Rutgers University–Newark. She is also a research affiliate of the Public Interest Technology and Management Lab in the New Jersey State Policy Lab and of the Population Studies Center at the University of Pennsylvania. A demographer and social epidemiologist, she studies the political and policy contexts of spatial, racial, and demographic inequalities in population health and mortality – specifically, how health systems, policy environments, and political regimes produce divergent health and mortality outcomes across axes of social stratification, such as race, nativity, sex, and age.
