David Rehkopf
Associate Professor
Dr. Rehkopf is an Associate Professor of Medicine in the Division of Primary Care and Population Health and in Health Research and Policy at Stanford University. He is a social epidemiologist who studies how federal, state and local policies exacerbate or diminish socioeconomic and racial/ethnic inequalities in health. In order to answer these questions, he examines the potential benefits of additional biological information (genotype, telomere length, DNA methylation) for understanding the links between changes in the environment and chronic disease. He received a Masters degree in Epidemiology and Biostatistics from University of California, Berkeley, and his Doctorate from the Harvard School of Public Health.
