I focus on two main areas of TB research: 1) Implementation and operational research to improve programmatic outcomes of TB diagnostic and treatment care using evidence-based guidelines; and 2) Social protection research aimed at improving patient and public health outcomes by implementing social protection interventions to overcome socioeconomic barriers to TB care and evaluating both economic and TB outcomes of these approaches. My current projects include an implementation research project in Uganda to improve effectiveness of TB diagnostic evaluation strategies and treatment initiation by using patient centered social protection interventions such as incentives to improve outcomes. I serve as a Consultant for the World Health Organization’s Global Tuberculosis Programme, where I manage a global level portfolio focused on providing technical assistance to high-burden countries in developing targeted implementation research agendas. In addition, I have been leading projects aimed at analyzing the impact of TB control strategies on high-risk vulnerable populations in Brazil, South Africa, and Vietnam. I have a technical assistance project in Brazil focused on integrating social protection intervention in programmatic TB settings. As TB Team Lead at UCSF for a multicenter CDC cooperative agreement, I manage a multidisciplinary team with the goal of modelling domestic and California specific TB elimination strategies. I also serve on the WHO Global TB Research Task Force, and the Social Protection Action Research and Knowledge (SPARKs) Advisory Board. I am Associate Director of the UCSF Implementation Science Training Program.
