American epidemiologist
Daniel W. Belsky is an American epidemiologist and researcher in aging, genomics, and population health. He is an Associate Professor of Epidemiology in the Robert N. Butler Columbia Aging Center at the Columbia University Mailman School of Public Health.
Career
Belsky joined Columbia University in 2018 as an Assistant Professor of Epidemiology and became Associate Professor with tenure in 2023. He is also affiliated with the Robert N. Butler Columbia Aging Center. Before moving to Columbia, he was on the faculty at the Duke University School of Medicine, holding appointments in Medicine and Population Health Sciences, and earlier served as a Research Assistant Professor at Duke’s Social Science Research Institute.[1]
Research
Belsky’s research integrates epidemiology, genomics, and geroscience to examine health disparities and the biological processes of aging.[2] His work seeks to translate insights from aging biology and geroscience into public health strategies to increase healthy lifespan.[3] He has published extensively on the interaction of genes[4] and environment in shaping health across the life course.[5]
