Katherine M Keyes

Dr. Keyes’s research focuses on psychiatric and drug use epidemiology across the life-course, including early origins of child and adult health and cross-generational cohort effects on substance use, mental health, and chronic disease. She is particularly interested in methodological challenges in estimating age, period, and cohort effects, as well as using mathematical agent-based and other simulation models to inform public health and policy interventions. She is the author of more than 250 peer-reviewed publications, and two textbooks published by Oxford University Press: “Epidemiology Matters: A New Introduction to Methodological Foundation”, published in 2014 and “Population Health Science” published in 2016.
