Dr. Howe is an epidemiologist with interests in methods, infectious diseases, health disparities, as well as the health effects of social and economic policies. Her methodologically focused research interests include improving understanding of potential sources of bias; providing clarity in areas where there has been debate regarding the best approaches; as well as better characterizing, adapting, and illustrating the use of advanced quantitative methods to promote accurate inference. Her applied work has often focused on using state-of-the-art approaches to identify the best targets for effective interventions to improve population health and advance health equity, especially in the area of HIV.
