My research program focuses on the health-related implications of everyday work and family life, and their contributions to health inequalities by race, ethnicity and socioeconomic status.
I have had 15 years of consecutive NIH funding, and I have 10 years of NIH grant review experience wherein I have evaluated grants. I am happy to use this experience to support emerging investigators in obtaining their first grant award. I have lead several longitudinal cohort studies asking social science questions (see current research) that incorporated the use of biomarkers and device data. I am also happy to support others’ projects through the use of community-based participatory strategies, or in terms of alternative sampling and data collection strategies for research with immigrant Latinos.
