标题: 2014.07.06 迈克尔-马莫特爵士教授 流行病专家
Professor Sir Michael Marmot is interviewed by Kirsty Young for Desert Island Discs. He's an epidemiologist who has spent his career studying what the key factors are in leading a long and healthy life and how your income and post code can affect your longevity.

Professor of Epidemiology and Public Health and Director of the Institute of Health Equity at University College London, Sir Michael specialises in what are known as the social determinants of health: how where we are in the wealth and status pecking order directly influences our chances of illness, disease and lifespan. Why is it, for example, that in 2014 in the same British city the average life expectancy for a man in one post code will be 82 but just a few miles away it's 54?
His work has influenced politicians around the globe.

His pioneering research is often at odds with wider societal concerns over what are known these days as lifestyle choices - like smoking, not taking any exercise or eating junk ... he says simply "what I contribute to the policy debate is that I bring evidence - I don't do the skulduggery of politics.".




迈克尔-马莫特爵士教授在《荒岛光盘》节目中接受了克尔斯蒂-杨的采访。他是一位流行病学家,在他的职业生涯中一直在研究引领健康长寿的关键因素是什么,以及你的收入和邮政编码如何影响你的寿命。

迈克尔爵士是伦敦大学学院流行病学和公共卫生教授以及健康公平研究所所长,他专门研究所谓的健康的社会决定因素:我们在财富和地位方面的地位如何直接影响到我们患病、生病和寿命的机会。例如,为什么在2014年,在同一个英国城市,一个邮政编码的男子的平均预期寿命是82岁,而在几英里之外,却是54岁?
他的工作影响了全球的政治家。

他的开创性研究往往与当今社会对所谓的生活方式选择--如吸烟、不做任何运动或吃垃圾食品--的广泛关注相抵触......他简单地说:"我对政策辩论的贡献是我带来了证据--我不做政治上的诡计。"
