Research Interests

Applying epidemiologic methods to the evaluation of the economic, social, and health consequences of youth-onset diabetes, youth-onset obesity, and injuries. Dr. Songer's current work focuses on examining the costs and benefits of interventions in childhood diabetes treatment and prevention, and in examining the relative contribution of health and disability to motor vehicle crashes and injuries. Past projects have focused on investigating injuries related to the weather, identifying the medical costs related to diabetes, the costs associated with child maltreatment, and evaluating the influence of economic factors as risk factors in diabetes outcomes.
