OverviewAI-generated summary
Clare C. Brown's research centers on health disparities and outcomes, with a particular focus on maternal and infant health. She is a Principal Investigator on an NIH/National Institute on Minority Health and Health Disparities grant totaling $125,185, which investigates algorithmic fairness in predictive models to eliminate disparities in adverse infant outcomes. Her work has examined the impact of state Medicaid expansion on low birth weight and preterm birth rates, and the association between comorbidities and severe maternal morbidity. Brown also studies the influence of mental health conditions on severe maternal morbidity and associated healthcare costs in the United States.
Her research group's publications span a range of public health topics. Recent work includes an analysis of COVID-19 vaccination rates in relation to community vulnerability and a study on the mediators and moderators of nutrition intervention effects in remote Indigenous Australian communities. Brown's scholarship metrics include an h-index of 15, with 150 total publications and 980 total citations, indicating a significant body of scholarly work. She has established collaborations with several researchers at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, including J. Mick Tilford, George Pro, Mandana Rezaeiahari, and Corey J. Hayes.
