OverviewAI-generated summary
Mario Schootman, a Professor in Internal Medicine at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, investigates health disparities and outcomes across various populations. His research group has examined the impact of environmental factors, such as neighborhood disinvestment and green space availability, on health conditions including breast cancer outcomes and childhood asthma prevalence. Schootman has also focused on understanding parental intentions regarding childhood vaccinations, including for COVID-19, and has explored racial and skin color mediated disparities in medical measurements like pulse oximetry.
His work extends to cardiovascular health, with studies investigating the link between income variability and the incidence of cardiovascular disease in individuals with diabetes. Schootman's scholarship is recognized through his h-index of 56 and over 13,500 citations, reflecting a significant publication record. He has secured federal funding totaling over $1.2 million for research, including an Institutional Career Development award and a CTSA K12 Program grant from the NIH/National Center for Advancing Translational Sciences, where he serves as PI on the latter.
Schootman actively collaborates with colleagues within the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, including Jonathan Laryea, Sonia T. Orcutt, Chenghui Li, and Bradley C. Martin, with whom he has co-authored multiple publications. He leads a research group and maintains an active lab website, indicating ongoing research activities and mentorship.
