I am interested in how health policy problems and trends emerge, are defined, sustained, and changed, and, in particular, how industry and mass media figure in the construction of policy around health risk issues.
My current work focuses on the role of the tobacco industry in shaping understandings of tobacco use and responsibility for risk, and on its targeting of marginalized groups. In particular, we are examining the tobacco industry's 'corporate social responsibility' initiatives within the context of globalizing forces.
My teaching includes health policy theory, tobacco control policy, and policy leadership and communication. I coordinate the health policy Ph.D. specialty focus.
