Dr. Stojanovski also has dual master’s degrees in public health epidemiology and in health management and policy at the University of Michigan. With training in epidemiology, health policy, and the social and behavioral sciences, Dr. Stojanovski leverages interdisciplinary and community-based methods to conduct global research to discern structural influences on LGBTQ+ and ethnic minority health across countries. His work utilizes a breadth of theories and methods, such as Complex Systems Theory, legal epidemiology, mixed-methods, computational modeling, community-based participatory research, and systematic reviews. Dr. Stojanovski’s work examines how stigmatizing policies and norms influence LGBTQ+ health and HIV prevention, utilizing Complex Systems Theory, computational and multi-level modeling to portray how the interacting pathways of limited policy protections, their mental health effects, and subsequent influence on sexual behavior socially pattern HIV risk. At Tulane, Dr. Stojanovski furthers health equity research exploring questions of study design, methods, and measurement of the structural determinants of health. His work is part of the Partners for Advancing Health Equity Learning Collaborative supported by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation and the Institute for Innovations in Health Equity.
