K Bruce Newbold is Professor in the School of Earth, Environment & Society and Associate Dean of the Faculty of Science at McMaster University. With a PhD in Geography from McMaster, his research examines population mobility, immigrant integration, and aging societies.
Newbold's current projects investigate transportation barriers for older adults, health outcomes among refugee populations, and the urban-rural divide in service accessibility. His interdisciplinary approach combines demographic analysis with spatial modeling of social inequities.
He directs studies on COVID-19's impact on mobility patterns and leads community co-design initiatives like the EMBOLDEN trial to enhance physical activity in disadvantaged elders. Publications frequently analyze census data to track migration trends and health service utilization disparities.
As Associate Dean, he oversees academic programming and faculty development in the sciences while maintaining an active research portfolio with international collaborations.
