Dr. Chan’s work focuses on global perinatal and pediatric epidemiology. She leads the HaSET research program for maternal and child health. Together with colleagues, she has established a field site in rural Ethiopia with a cohort of women and their children.
Ongoing research projects and interests focus on:
- Surveillance of maternal and child morbidity and mortality to improve disease estimates
- Risk prediction and causal modeling for pregnancy complications and adverse birth outcomes
- Development and testing of newborn care packages to improve survival of preterm and low-birth weight babies
- Etiologies of neonatal sepsis and antimicrobial resistance
- Effects of climate change and air pollution on maternal and child health outcomes
Dr. Chan also serves as an attending physician in the Division of Medical Critical Care at Boston Children’s Hospital. She is also an honorary faculty member at St Paul's Hospital Millennium Medical College, Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. She has mentored students and fellows as an academic advisor and dissertation committee member.

Through predictive models, it may be possible to identify pregnant women in low-resource settings who are at high risk of failing to attend antenatal care, in order to develop interventions to encourage their attendance, according to a new…
Harvard Chan School researchers estimated the number and prevalence of stillbirths, neonatal deaths, and medically vulnerable newborns in Ethiopia.
In a new study, Harvard Chan School's Grace Chan and colleagues identified risk factors for sepsis in newborns in low- and middle-income countries.
A collaboration called HaSET is working to reduce maternal and child morbidity and mortality in Ethiopia.
Global health student Michelle Korte, MPH ’21, is using her time in isolation to focus on what matters most.
