Matthew Murrill is an Assistant Professor of Hospital Medicine and an epidemiologist. His overarching research goal is to improve tuberculosis (TB) care, particularly TB prevention, by leveraging epidemiologic and implementation science methods. His primary research interests are: (1) understand gaps in latent TB care; (2) utilize quasi-experimental methods and implementation science to evaluate interventions aimed at reducing barriers to TB care; and (3) address fundamental questions of TB epidemiology that limit our ability to target TB preventive therapy to individuals who would most benefit.
