## Resource

In the podcast, guests Dr. Cynthia Lakon and Dr. John Hipp discuss their research on the socio-spatial health disparities during the COVID-19 pandemic in US skilled nursing facilities. They discuss the factors that influence the pervasiveness of the pandemic within these facilities, such as the social and economic condition of the surrounding area, the funding allocated to the nursing home, and the size of the nursing home itself. They also delve into the methodology of their research, their data sources, and the crucial role of considering geographic context in their study. Tune in to learn more about this critical aspect of public health. With special guests: Cynthia M. Lakon, Ph.D, Professor in the Department of Health, Society, and Behavior, University of California - Irvine and John R. Hipp, Ph.D, Professor in the Department of Criminology, Law, and Society, and Sociology, University of California - Irvine
