Using implementation science and participatory approaches to help community-based organizations address health inequities. Associate Professor at the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health. Views are my own.
A highlight of my new intro #qualitative research course @hsph.harvard.edu was bringing in two fabulous collaborators - Davine Holness and Bella de Sa. They lost me a bit when they talked about loving coding, but at least we all agreed on the beauty of #participatory, justice-focused research.

Every flashbang could instead be a meal for a poor kid. Every hotel room for a National Guardsman deployed to fire at our neighbors could house a homeless vet. Every "less-than-lethal" bullet pulled from a journalist's eye could be already needed healthcare for anyone else. All of this is a choice.

Almost every line of this story would have been simply unbelievable a few months ago:
—Pioneering cancer researcher;
—*Arrested* at airport in Boston;
—Now indefinite ICE detention in Louisiana;
—"Crime": not declaring some frog-embryo samples for research.

New images could change cancer diagnostics, but ICE detained the Harvard scientist who analyzes them
Without scientist Kseniia Petrova’s expertise, no one can fully unlock the data’s potential, putting crucial advancements in early cancer detection at risk.
