Claire E. Margerison, Ph.D.
Background
Associate Professor
Department of Epidemiology & Biostatistics
Michigan State University
Dr. Claire E. Margerison is a population health scientist whose research focuses on understanding the determinants of racial, ethnic, and socioeconomic inequities in women’s health, particularly before, during, and after pregnancy. Her work seeks to identify and assess policy changes and preventative strategies to eliminate such inequities.
Dr. Margerison’s current research has two major areas of focus. First, she is assessing the impacts of health and social policies, particularly the Affordable Care Act, on women’s preconception health, reproductive health behaviors, pregnancy outcomes, and postpartum health. This work is funded through R01HD095951 and R01HD095951, Policy Change and Women’s Health. Second, she is working to produce some of the first empirical evidence documenting the incidence of and disparities in pregnancy-associated mortality and morbidity due to drug use, self-harm, and violence in the U.S., funded by R01HD102319.
