Martine Shareck, Ph.D Candidate in Public Health (Health Promotion)
Université de Montréal, Montréal, Canada
Biography
I am a Ph.D Candidate in Public Health specializing in Health
Promotion at the Université de Montréal School of Public Health (ESPUM).
I am also affiliated to the Institut de Recherche en Santé Publique de l'Université de Montréal (IRSPUM) and the Centre de Recherche du Centre Hospitalier de l'Université de Montréal (CRCHUM) . I am trained in the Environmental Sciences with a specialization in the ecological determinants
of health (McGill University, 2006) and in Epidemiology and
Community Health (Université de Montréal, 2008). Very generally, my
research interests relate to urban health equity. In line with my inter-disciplinary training, I aim to view
issues related to this broad theme under a holistic perspective.
For my doctoral thesis, I combine knowledge from public health, geography and sociology to study social inequalities in smoking among young adults living in Montreal, Canada. More precisely, I aim to better define the geographical space relevant for the study of the influence that contextual exposures have on social inequalities in smoking among young adults.
