Presented by Molly Franke, Professor of Global Health and Social Medicine at Harvard Medical School

Professor Franke is a global health researcher whose work brings the rigor of epidemiology to intractable infections, including tuberculosis, cholera, HIV. A primary objective of her work is to reduce suffering from infectious diseases by applying rigorous epidemiologic methods to address critical knowledge gaps related to interventions and treatment. Examples include the design of studies to assess the effectiveness of cholera interventions, including vaccination, and the use of causal inference-based approaches to study treatment for drug-resistant tuberculosis.
