Healthy Regions + Policies Lab
The Healthy Regions & Policies Lab (HEROP) is a lab at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign integrating innovative GIScience, public health, and statistical approaches to explore, understand, and promote healthy regions and policies. Learn more at https://www.healthyregions.org/.
Our research centers on how “place” impacts health in different ways, for different people, with a focus on vulnerability and exposure hypotheses. We focus on complexity surrounding the measurement, mapping, and distillation of multiple health outcomes and associated social determinants at varying scales.
Based at the University of Illinois, HEROP is dedicated to open science, open source methodology & applications. We are committed to research translation for policy & public use. We also provide research experiences in spatial and computational thinking for students, extending learning in the classroom to the complexity of raw research.
