About CRIISP

The Center for Research and Innovations In Special Populations (CRIISP), led by Dr. Lona Mody, applies translational epidemiologic research methods to enhance disease outcomes in vulnerable populations. Our projects utilize a variety of research methods from observational and molecular epidemiology, clinical trials to implementation science with an explicit attention to mentoring junior investigators in research leadership.
