Simona C. Kwon, DrPH, MPH
Professor, Department of Population Health

I am a professor in the Department of Population Health and serve as Vice Chair for Departmental Engagement, Development, and Culture in the Department of Population Health at NYU Grossman School of Medicine.  

I am a social and behavioral epidemiologist with extensive experience in the use of, among other methods, community-based participatory research, mixed methods (qualitative and quantitative) approaches, evidence-based strategies, dissemination and implementation science, and multidisciplinary teams to examine community-level health outcomes. I work in collaboration with multisector coalitions made up of local and national community-based organizations, governmental agencies, service delivery organizations, and researchers from discrete disciplines. 

My research examines the multi-level factors that influence health and health outcomes across populations and communities. I employ a social determinants of health framework to implement and evaluate evidence-based strategies in community settings and finding more effective channels through which to translate research into practice.
