2016 Zena Stein and Mervyn Susser Award for Lifetime Achievement Award for contributing substantially to the Advancement of the Field of MCH Epidemiology with Significant and Lasting Impact, Awarded by The Coalition for Excellence in MCH Epidemiology, September 15, 2016

Major professional and research interests:

To apply public health sciences, including epidemiology to enhance the health of families, women and children. My special interest has been in the resolution of reproductive health problems, including maternal and infant mortality and morbidity. I have 10 years experience developing epidemiology capacity on maternal and child health in state health departments and 10 additional years experience consulting with state health departments.

As abortion is an important and controversial global public health issues, in 2009, I established an endowed fund at Rollins School of Public Health to support students engaged in the Global Elimination of Maternal Mortality from Abortion, the GEMMA fund. Since 2010, we have taught the GEMMA Seminar, a unique public health course, to help equip students to achieve GEMMA.
