As past-president of the Association for Anthropology,Gerontology and the Life Course (AAGE), I am interested in mentoring anthropology students in careers in aging and the health sciences. I am currently Endowed Chair in Gerontology and Director of the Center for Successful Aging at CSU Long Beach's College of Health and Human Services. I have a joint PhD in Anthropology and Population and Family Health Sciences (Pubic Health) from the Johns Hopkins University, and have been working in Public Health and Medicine conducting research and teaching on social and cultural factors influencing health throughout the life course, with an emphasis in aging, immigration, and Latin American populations. I have experience working with with local, statewide and international government agencies. View all posts by Iveris L Martinez
