About Us

The HER Lab

HER Lab is an applied community health research collaboratory comprising over 30 staff, fellows, students, and alumni. Our work focuses on understanding social and structural drivers that shape how care is accessed, delivered, and experienced in real-world settings.

Grounded in applied community health, we design, implement, and evaluate community-based service models that improve access, strengthen engagement, and support thriving outcomes. We collaborate with community-based organizations locally and globally to co-create approaches tailored to each community’s unique needs, values, and context.

Our work leverages population health data and real-world implementation to inform public health practice and policy and strengthen sustainable community health solutions.
