Welcome to the Dye Lab

The Dye Lab’s research program works with communities around the world to address health priorities, often through technology and human-centered design. We view humans in their ecological context, understanding that social, biological, environmental, and other factors interact to impact health and illness, and that community participation and partnership is central to the scientific enterprise.

Our lab values immersion, respect, and self-determination among its members and partners. We strive to prioritize the insights of people and their communities in our work. Our research and practice evolves with team members, inspired by theories and principals blending epidemiology, anthropology, informatics, and law. Our priorities include:

• Global Health, with a special emphasis on Latin America and the Caribbean, Asia and the Pacific, and Global Deaf Health,
• Perinatal Health, with a special emphasis on social determinants of medical risk in pregnancy and childhood,
• Technology, in the creation and maintenance of communities of learning, in communication, and to stimulate action, and
• Innovative ways of bringing communities and researchers together in transparent cocreation of ethical research to improve health.

Our work crosses disciplines, languages, and geographies.
