The Ted Cohen Lab is located at the Yale School of Public Health in the Department of Epidemiology of Microbial Diseases. The lab uses quantitative and computational approaches to improve the effectiveness and efficiency of infectious disease control policies.
The Cohen Lab is a multidisciplinary group conducting research that focuses on two infectious diseases of global public health importance: tuberculosis (TB) and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV).
Our team includes individuals with training in clinical medicine, epidemiology, statistics, applied mathematics, health policy, biochemistry, global health and operations research. We believe that the best solutions to the complex challenges associated with control of TB and HIV arise through collaborative work between individuals with different training, skills and perspectives.
We welcome opportunities to broaden our work through collaboration with others who are engaged in similar endeavors.
We are currently engaged in projects in sub-Saharan Africa, Eastern Europe, Asia and the Americas working with academic, governmental, and non-governmental partners.
