Ronald J. Angelis Professor of Sociology at the University of Texas at Austin. He received his PhD in Sociology from the University of Wisconsin Madison in 1981. His research focuses on comparative welfare systems, retirement, and health care access and use among Hispanics and other minority populations. His work, which has been published in numerous books and journal articles, demonstrates the complex interaction of socioeconomic status, cultural and other social factors in determining individuals’ and communities’ opportunities for social advancement and exposure to health risks. Angel is currently working on a project focused on the role of the non-governmental sector in advocacy for and care delivery to older individuals in Mexico. The work appears in a book entitled When Strangers Become Family: The Role of Civil Society in Addressing the Needs of Aging Populations (Routledge 2020). This is part of a larger project on the role of civil society organizations in rapidly aging nations.

Jacqueline L. Angelis Professor of Public Affairs and Sociology and a Faculty Affiliate at the Population Research Center at The University of Texas at Austin. Her research examines health and retirement issues in the US, with a focus on older minorities, immigration processes, the impact of social policy on the Hispanic population and Mexican-American families. She is involved in several NIH/NIA projects, including a longitudinal study of older Mexican Americans (H-EPESE) since its inception in 1992 and for the past two decades a Conference Series on Aging in the Americas. Angel is author/coauthor/co-editor of numerous publications. This includes books such as The Politics of a Majority-Minority Nation: Aging, Diversity and Immigration (2019) and Latinos in an Aging World (2015). Major papers include “Institutional Context of Family Eldercare in Mexico and the United States” (2016) and “Medicaid Use among Older Low-Income Medicare Enrollees in California and Texas: A Tale of Two States” (2019).

She is currently working with colleagues on the research project Interactional Practices of Decision-making During Childbirth in Maternity Units funded by the UK’s National Institute of Health Research.

Elyas Bakhtiariis Assistant Professor in the Department of Sociology at the College of William & Mary. His research examines how institutionalized social inequalities and boundary formation processes shape patterns of health outcomes and health disparities, particularly for racial and ethnic minorities and international migrants. His work relies on historical and cross-national comparison to understand the formation of health disparities, with current projects focusing on European migration to the US in the early twentieth century and Middle Eastern migrant health after September 11, 2001. His work has been published in the Journal of Health and Social Behavior , Social Science & Medicine , American Behavioral Scientist , Socius , and other outlets.
