Sally ZierlerDr. Zierler received her doctoral degree in Epidemiology from Harvard School of Public Health. She won the Academy of Epidemiology National Award for Best Doctoral Research in Epidemiology, best teacher in the Life Sciences at Brown University, and HV and Violence prevention service awards. Over the last 25 years, my research has integrated reproductive and social epidemiology, developmental psychology, and epidemiologic methods with community-based public health practice. Major measurement development work includes research on life course exposure measurements of interpersonal and structural violence exposure, including neighborhood safety, police-related homicide of young Black men, economic composition and racial disparities in homicide victimization, and multiple studies of geospatial socioeconomic small-area interactions with respect to violence, depression, and HIV infection (Zierler, AJPH 2000; Pearlman PubPolRpt, 2003; Gjelsvik et al; J Urban Hlth 2004); development of measures of life course violence victimization (Wise et al, Zierler, The Lancet 1991;), and dimensions of spirituality and health effects (Zierler and Stein, Fetzer presentation, Chicago 2003).
