The Edward A. Dickson Emeritus/a Professorship Lecture
"Flourishing, Long Life, and the Nature of Health"
Howard Friedman, Distinguished UCR Professor Emeritus of the Psychology Department
Tuesday, November 1, 2022 at 3:00 p.m.
Presentation delivered via Zoom
Why do some people thrive well into old age while others become ill or die young? Our studies of the lifetime pathways of 1500 Americans who were initially assessed as children in 1921 suggest a conceptual shift in how we think about health. As current events have made starkly clear, health is much more than the absence of diagnosed disease.
