Dr. Buszkiewicz is a social epidemiologist who applies both epidemiologic and econometric methods to understand how policy can address key structural determinants of health, such as income inequity, structural racism, and the built environment. To date, his work has examined the impact of raising state minimum wages on health and mental well-being, the influence of measures of the built environment and food environment on body weight trajectories, and the influence of policy changes in response to COVID-19 on diet quality and food insecurity. As part of the Center for Social Epidemiology and Population Health (CSEPH), the Tobacco Center of Regulatory Science, and the Center for the Assessment of Tobacco and Health (CAsToR), his work examines how the Food and Drug Administration's tobacco control policies, such as couponing and flavoring in cigar products, may be used as a tool to reduce racial/ethnic and socioeconomic inequities in tobacco use behaviors and health.
