Highlights Increased neighborhood flood risk predicts lower odds of households moving out of their neighborhood. This association is largest for renters, low-income homeowners, and Black homeowners. This pattern may reflect housing insecurity, which can manifest as both immobility and instability. Studies of climate and population should disaggregate by race and ethnicity, income, and housing tenure.
How can new TB vaccines be effectively introduced in Indonesia? Insights from diverse stakeholders

We used a mixed-methods approach combining a stakeholder consultation in Jakarta (13/03/2025) among 28 participants with diverse expertise and foll…
Insights on the implementation strategies for a potential new tuberculosis vaccine in South Africa
Several tuberculosis (TB) vaccines intended for adults and adolescents are in late-stage clinical trials, but there is limited research into how a new TB vaccine would be introduced. South Africa is at the forefront of TB vaccine research, with involvement in the clinical trials of leading candidates. We sought to understand what the priorities and implementation approach of a potential new TB vaccine in South Africa would be. We conducted semi-s…
Bibliometric analysis of authorship patterns in publications from a research group at the London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine, 2016–2020

Correlates of Treatment Retention Among Persons with Serious Mental Illness Receiving Integrated Care in a Community Mental Health Setting
Knowledge about methods to retain community mental health (CMH) clients in integrated primary and behavioral health care (PBHC) programs is needed to address longstanding health disparities. A preexisting data set that contained the clinical records of 446 PBHC program participants was used to examine whether baseline sociodemographic, health, and psychosocial characteristics predicted retention in care at 6 months post-enrollment. Results indica…
Community Perceptions of Industrial Risks Before and After a Toxic Flood: The Case of Houston and Hurricane Harvey
The present study examines risk perceptions before and after a recent natural-technological event. The aim is to improve understanding of how long-time residents understand chronic and acute industrial risks, including hazardous industrial releases triggered by natural disasters. Thirty-two interviews were conducted in Channelview, Texas: 19 in February 2017, six months before Hurricane Harvey’s landfall, and 13 with those same residents in Decem…
