Email: dmisra@med.wayne.edu |
Department Role
I have two roles in the Department. I am the interim Associate Chair for Research as well as the Director of the Division of Population Health Sciences. I am an epidemiologist with expertise in perinatal and social epidemiology. Much of my work focuses on racial and socioeconomic disparities in perinatal health with an emphasis on preterm birth. In 2008, I co-chaired the Psychosocial Factors Workgroup for the Office of the U.S. Surgeon General Conference on Preterm Birth. I am currently on the editorial board for the journal Paediatric and Perinatal Epidemiology.
My research focuses on social and biomedical factors which may influence perinatal outcomes and which may explain the increased risks of infants born to poor and minority women. This includes examining the intersection between women's health prior to pregnancy and outcomes of pregnancy. I have proposed a framework for perinatal health that integrates a lifespan approach with a multiple determinants model (Misra, Guyer & Allston, 2003). The lifespan perspective focuses attention toward the preconceptional and interconceptional periods as targets for intervention in improving perinatal health. The multiple determinants model distinguishes between concepts of disease, health and functioning, and well-being among both women and their offspring.
