RESEARCH


Dr. Lodge uses mixed-methods and community-engaged research to examine complex questions at the intersection of health, policy, and social inequality. His work integrates quantitative approaches, including survey research and latent class analysis, with qualitative methods such as in-depth interviews, focus groups, and participatory approaches. Across studies, he works closely with community partners to inform research design, interpretation, and dissemination, with an emphasis on producing evidence that is both methodologically rigorous and responsive to community and policy priorities.
