OverviewAI-generated summary
Wen-Juo Lo's research focuses on public health, with a particular emphasis on reproductive health, vaccination attitudes, and the application of statistical methodologies in research. Lo has investigated public knowledge and attitudes surrounding abortion laws, including the influence of the <i>Dobbs v. Jackson</i> decision and perceptions of fetal development markers. This work has been supported by federal funding, including a $402,073 grant from the NIH/National Cancer Institute for the "Hashtag HPV" project, which aims to increase HPV vaccination rates through social media engagement.
Lo's research also extends to understanding parental attitudes towards HPV vaccination in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic, drawing on national survey data. Methodologically, Lo has contributed to the literature on survey design and translation frameworks for health research, as well as the application of Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) using R. Lo maintains an active lab website and collaborates with colleagues at the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville, including Ronna C. Turner, with whom Lo has co-authored 37 publications.
