Balikis Gbadamosi

I am a Master’s student in Sociology at Kent State University, specializing in Medical and Mental Health Sociology. My research sits at the intersection of childhood adversity and health — exploring how life experiences shape mental and physical health outcomes across the life course.

My core research interests include:

Medical and Mental Health Sociology
Life Course and Aging
Childhood Adversity and Trauma
Health Inequalities
Quantitative and Qualitative Method

I am passionate about understanding how structural and social factors contribute to health disparities, and how early adversity leaves lasting imprints on individual wellbeing.
