Research Interests

My research focuses on the intersection of climate change and health. I focus on epidemiological study design and data science approaches in my research which has allowed me to explore a variety of climate change health outcomes and infectious diseases and their long term health outcomes.

Current Work

• Exploring transmission of pathogens from cattle feedlots to adjacent lands

• Gastrointestinal symptoms and health outcomes of COVID-19 (NIH NIDDK R01, co-I)

• Cardiovascular health outcomes of wildfire (CLIMAS)

• Supporting health departments respond to the health effects of climate change (BRACE, CDC)

Thinking about…

• How are migratory birds involved in transmission dynamics of foodborne pathogens?

• Do regenerative agriculture practices support soil health, and reduce pathogen transmission?
