Crath's research interrogates how systems of power—including colonization, racialized capitalism, and neoliberal governance—shape knowledge production about marginalized communities. His work employs interdisciplinary, community-driven approaches and innovative arts-based methodologies to explore:
- Risk governance
- Queer sexualities and health
- Biopolitics of health technologies
Recent publications analyze topics such as the pharmaco-pornographic imagination in HIV prevention, Black trans survivance during the pandemic, and aesthetic resistance in community murals.
