“My research focuses on the spatiotemporal patterns of environmental illnesses and how these patterns relate to environmental, socioeconomic, and climatic determinants. This research is guided by the social-ecological approach of vulnerability theory, which investigates the complex interplay between the environmental and social or economic aspects of a community. Using this theory, my research provides insights into the etiology of environmental-health diseases, highlighting both at-risk populations and the environmental conditions that lead to adverse health outcomes. My current research is funded through a National Science of Foundation CAREER grant, the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS), and the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention.”
