SUMMARY:Health Systems Decentralization in Rural Honduras: Little Evidence for Improvements in Maternal and Child Health
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Elisabeth Root\nAssociate Professor of Geography; Associate Professor of Epidemiology; The Ohio State University\nCPC Training Program Predoctoral Alumna \nProfessor Root’s research is situated at the intersection of geography and public health. Using spatial statistical methods and Geographic Information Systems (GIS)\, she integrates socioeconomic and environmental context into studies of disease processes and health behaviors to better understand geographical patterns of human health across diverse settings\, examine how local and regional context drives these patterns of disease\, and model the effect of major health and development interventions across these diverse settings. Dr. Root’s  main approach involves collecting extensive survey and health data and combining these data with areal demographic/economic indicators and environmental data. She then use spatial statistical methods and GIS to quantify and assess the spatial/contextual factors which alter disease processes and programmatic effects. Her active research projects are located in Honduras\, Bangladesh\, and the Philippines as well as the U.S.

SUMMARY:Religion and Depression in Adolescence
DESCRIPTION:Jane Fruehwirth\, UNC-CH \nJane Cooley Fruehwirth is an economist with research interests in the determinants of social\, economic and racial inequality. A central theme to her research is the role of social context in shaping disadvantage\, particularly in the context of schools and friendships. She also studies education policies at the elementary and secondary school level that are aimed at improving disadvantaged students’ outcomes\, such as teaching practice\, accountability and grade retention. More recently\, her research delves into the determinants of mental health in adolescence\, particularly the role of religion and friends

SUMMARY:Does Changing the Social Environment in Early Childhood Matter? Emerging Causal Evidence from Pakistan
DESCRIPTION:Joanna Maselko\, UNC-CH \nJoanna (‘Asia’) Maselko is a social and psychiatric epidemiologist whose research aims to identify mechanisms through which the social environment impacts the development of common neuropsychiatric disorders. Anchored in a life-course developmental framework\, a large portion of her research focuses on the intergenerational transmission of risk and the role of the environment in altering socio-emotional and cognitive developmental trajectories. \nDr. Maselko is currently the PI of the SHARE CHILD study\, a cluster RCT set in rural Pakistan\, whose goal is to investigate mechanisms through which maternal depression\, and its treatment\, impacts child development in the first three years of life. A central question is to examine heterogeneity of treatment effects by social contextual factors such as socioeconomic status\, family composition\, and parenting. \nA separate line of research focuses on religious engagement and health\, with a special interest on how gender\, race/ethnicity\, and socioeconomic status affect this relationship over the lifecourse. \nThe majority of Dr. Maselko’s research is located in South Asia\, with the broad goal of expanding the field of social and psychiatric epidemiology globally through anchoring research in a cross-cultural context and addressing disparities in global health
