I am a Public Health Researcher.
Erin Rogers, Dr.P.H.
New York University School of Medicine
Bridging her interdisciplinary training in psychology, public health, and implementation science, Dr. Rogers' research focuses on reducing tobacco-related health disparities through the development and implementation of programs that target social determinants of tobacco use. Specifically, she is interested in strategies for overcoming structural and stigma-related barriers to tobacco treatment for people with psychiatric diagnoses, as well as strategies for reducing financial distress as a barrier to tobacco treatment engagement and cessation among people living in poverty who smoke . Her research is motivated by the voices of patients in her early smoking cessation research programs who were facing significant stressors not commonly addressed in tobacco use interventions.
Dr. Rogers' new R37 grant will test the impacts of an intervention that integrates financial coaching and referral to social services into smoking cessation coaching for people living in poverty who smoke . Her previous research found that the integrated intervention was more efficacious at reducing financial stress and smoking than a minimal usual care condition. The R37 grant will provide the opportunity to evaluate the intervention's effectiveness, mechanisms of action, and cost-effectiveness compared to standard intensive smoking cessation coaching.
