Summary
My research focuses on alcohol epidemiology and policy with a special focus on race, class, and neighborhood influences. As a leading scholar on alcohol use and alcohol-related problems among African Americans, my research focuses on three primary areas:
- alcohol consumption and alcohol-related problems among African Americans;
- environmental factors associated with alcohol consumption and alcohol-related problems among African Americans and low income populations; and
- environmental policies to prevent alcohol-related problems.
My research also includes studies of alcohol consumption and alcohol-related problems among youth, young adults, and gay men.
I am co-director of SPH's Health Equity Work Group and a member of the Alcohol Epidemiology Program, located within SPH's Epidemiology & Community Health Division.
