Biography
Amanda P Miller Ph.D. is an Assistant Research Professor and Global Health researcher in the Department of Epidemiology and Biostatistics at the San Diego State University School of Public Health. Her research interests are the intertwined epidemics of HIV, intimate partner violence (IPV) and mental health (including substance use). She has been conducting research on these public health issues in disproportionately burdened populations in low resource, high burden settings for 13 years with current projects in South Africa and Uganda. Dr. Miller’s work aims to understand and address the unique contextual factors that can serve as barriers to reducing alcohol use and experiences of IPV and improving mental health among persons at risk of HIV and those living with HIV, with the goal of developing tailored and sustainable programming that can reduce health disparities. She is also particularly interested in improving uptake and adherence to biomedical HIV prevention and treatment in populations at high risk of HIV infection and onward transmission.
