HIV • hepatitis C • COVID-19 • vulnerable populations • people in prison • migrants • implementation science • evidence-based policiesResearch Interests
My research focuses on designing, deploying, and evaluating evidence-based models of care that aim to increase engagement along the HIV and hepatitis C virus care cascades for vulnerable populations, with a particular focus on incarcerated and migrant populations. During the COVID-19 pandemic, my research has expanded to include seroprevalence studies in correctional facilities and interventions to increase COVID-19 vaccine uptake among people in prison. The ultimate goal of my research is to support the development of evidence-based policies to improve population health with an emphasis on eliminating certain infectious diseases such as hepatitis C and SARS-CoV-2 among neglected populations.Team Members
