Promoting Prescription Drug Safety Skills in School
Validating a geospatial healthfulness index with self-reported chronic disease and health outcomes
Is a School’s Neighborhood Physical Disorder Related to Its Academic Outcomes
A Novel Method for Evaluating and Comparing Community Health Reports
This research identified key health metrics not captured by current locally generated Flint public health reports. The 23.8% gap indicates an opportunity to improve local public health data report comprehensiveness.

Understanding the relationship between alcohol outlet density and life expectancy in Baltimore City
This research investigated the relationship between alcohol outlet density (AOD) and life expectancy, as mediated by community violence and community disadvantage. We used linear regression models to assess bivariate and multivariate relationships. There was a negative bivariate association between liquor store density and average life expectancy (β = −7.3370, p p = 0.220). Liquor store density is associated with higher levels of community disadv…
