Neil’s project seeks to evaluate the extent to which a new intervention designed to bring mobile tuberculosis (TB) management to the home has been successful in averting cases of pediatric TB and in mitigating the barriers to healthcare he identified as an undergraduate student.
Neil is an SM80 student in the Department of Epidemiology, pursuing a concentration in Clinical Epidemiology. His research focuses on characterizing outcomes among children exposed to and living with HIV in order to inform the design of clinical and public health interventions that reduce their infectious disease burden. He is particularly interested in asset-based community development approaches to epidemiologic investigation. In his free time, Neil works to develop human rights-based approaches to the delivery of medical care for populations living with HIV and associated infectious diseases. He holds a B.A. in Biology and Human Rights from Columbia University.
