Research interests include air pollution, urban air quality, and environmental exposures. Recent work highlights interdisciplinary approaches to climate and health linkages, wildfire smoke health impacts, and policy-relevant research. Key contributions include Lancet Countdown reports and studies on wildfire PM2.5 exposure risks in California and the southeastern US.
Her research emphasizes actionable insights for public health systems, with ongoing studies on climate-driven health inequities and adaptation strategies. Collaborations focus on integrating geospatial data and epidemiological models to address climate-related health challenges.
