Biography:
Dr. Robin Puett completed post-doctoral training with the Department of Environmental Health at the Harvard School of Public Health. Her research interests are in the areas of environmental and spatial exposure assessment and epidemiology. She is using large cohort studies and population-based data to explore the association of air pollution exposures with health outcomes and modification by diet and other lifestyle factors. She is also using these and other data to examine spatial associations between environmental context (e.g. built environment) and health outcomes.
Her spatial exposure assessment, epidemiology, and statistics work examines neighborhood contextual and built-environment factors associated with physical activity, obesity, and chronic diseases. Health disparities is a cross-cutting issue addressed in her spatial and environmental research.
