J. Dennis Fortenberry studies the sexual and reproductive health of adolescents and young adults, including topics such as sexually transmitted infections, HIV care, and healthy relationships. Much of the work also addresses sexual wellbeing, care for gender-diverse youth, and reducing stigma around sexual health. Studies combine survey measurement, clinical trials, qualitative interviews, and behavioral interventions.
Publication activity has generally declined over the past decade, from around 30 papers per year in 2017 to roughly 7 per year in recent years.
