[Social inequalities in health. A partnership of research and education].
The Chair on Health Inequality is one of the 12 Chairs created by the CHSRF. Resulting from a partnership between l'Université de Montréal, together with the Direction de la santé publique of the Régie régionale de la santé et des services sociaux Montréal-centre, the Chair will create a research program that will document and assess the role of public health programs based on social development in urban districts, in reducing social health inequality. This research infrastructure will support two training programs: 1) a post-doctoral training program that will introduce newly minted social science PhDs to collaborative research in public health; and 2) a professional doctorate program for public health professionals. The decision-makers and policy-makers targeted by the Chair's knowledge diffusion program are Directors of public health organizations.
