Investigator Spotlight: Getting to know Brittany Charlton
Over the summer, we welcomed Brittany Charlton, MSc, ScD, to the Department of Population Medicine faculty. A leading scholar documenting reproductive health disparities affecting sexual and gender minorities, Dr. Charlton also studies contraception use and family planning among people of all sexual orientations and gender identities. Her work often leverages data from large, prospective cohort studies, including the Nurses’ Health Study and the Growing Up Today Study.
