Profile

Research Description

Dr Anne McMunn currently leads a research project within the ESRC International Centre for Lifecourse Studies in Society and Health (ICLS) investigating the influence of parental divisions in paid employment and childcare, as well as stability and change in family structure, on the emotional wellbeing of children in the UK Millennium Cohort Study (MCS). In addition, Dr. McMunn continues her work on the social determinants of healthy ageing in the English Longitudinal Study of Ageing (ELSA). In previous work she showed that women in the MRC National Study of Health and Development 1946 birth cohort who combined work and family were healthier in their fifties than woman in the cohort who did not. She maintains an active interest in the health effects of gender divisions in labour and family.
