Sir Michael Marmot (Professor)

Sir Michael Marmot is a prominent British epidemiologist and public health expert known for his research on the social determinants of health. He studies how social, economic, and environmental factors influence health outcomes and inequalities among different populations. Marmot led the Marmot Review in 2010, which examined health inequalities in England and recommended ways to improve health and well-being.
