معرفی
Katherine Johnson, DVM, is an Instructor of Medicine at Tulane University. She holds a BS from the University of Illinois (2016), a DVM and MPH from the University of Missouri (2020). Her research spans dual focuses: veterinary medicine (non-human primate health, orthopedic surgery) and human health (maternal care access, sexual violence prevention, reproductive justice).
Her work critically examines healthcare inequities, particularly maternal healthcare barriers in rural areas and campus sexual violence prevention strategies. Recent studies analyze breastfeeding workplace policies, maternity leave disparities, and the sociocultural dimensions of reproductive choices.
Johnson’s publications emphasize interdisciplinary approaches, combining qualitative sociology with public health data analysis. Her curricular interventions to address campus sexual violence have demonstrated measurable behavioral impacts. She has also studied racial disparities in fertility care access and the evolving legal frameworks of third-party reproduction.
While no awards are explicitly mentioned, her work consistently addresses intersectional health issues at Tulane’s medical and public health programs.
