Lucie Kalousova

Lucie Kalousova is an assistant professor of sociology at the University of California, Riverside. She received her PhD in Sociology and Health Policy from the University of Michigan in 2017. Her research examines the relationship between health disparities and social and health policy, and how economic cycles impact population health.
