I hosted Dr. David Wheeler, Associate Professor in the Department of Biostatistics within the School of Medicine at Virginia Commonwealth University (VCU), for the National Cancer Institute Cancer Prevention Fellowship Program Cancer Prevention and Control Colloquia Series.
He gave a talk entitled, “Estimating Neighborhood Disadvantage Indices for Health Outcomes.” I moderated the hour-long virtual session.

Update - 2025-04-04: He is honored by the VCU Department of Biostatistics in the School of Public Health with its Dr. David Wheeler Memorial Lecture in Spatial and Cancer Statistics.
