Research
Through strong partnerships with community organizations, government agencies, health care systems and other stakeholders, our more than 90 faculty and staff seek to address some of the most critical threats to the health of our communities, including tobacco, obesity, cancer, and diabetes. Our diverse faculty bring expertise in psychology, sociology, epidemiology, economics, statistics, demography, anthropology, implementation science, public health, and health care delivery, allowing us to apply a multi-disciplinary approach to tackling health concerns, particularly those concerns that disproportionately affect rural, incarcerated, Native American, African American, and Latino communities.
