Assistant Professor
Priyanka Dubey completed her PhD in Community and Behavioral Health from the University of Iowa.
Priyanka’s work highlights the social and structural barriers individuals encounter in achieving sexual, reproductive, and menstrual health, aiming to inform programs for promoting health equity. Her current research focuses on understanding the ways in which stigma results in adverse health outcomes for transgender and/or non-binary individuals (TNB) in the US. The ultimate goal of this work is to develop and test interventions that improve health outcomes and reduce the impact of stigma for TNB individuals.
Additionally, she focuses on de-gendering menstruation and works with TNB communities in India. She is interested in listening to people’s experiences and understanding their behavior and attitudes to bring their voices to the fore. Methodologically, she employs principles of community-engaged research and qualitative methods while keeping the community at the center of research.
Prior to her PhD, Priyanka worked for eight years in the international development sector in India, where she evaluated programs related to maternal and child health and sexual and reproductive health. She also holds a Master’s in Social Work and a BA in sociology from the University of Mumbai, providing her with additional perspective for her work.
