Kagan A. Mellencamp's research spans two distinct areas within medicine and social science. One line of work studies infectious diseases, including immune responses to malaria in children and laboratory methods for diagnosing bacterial infections. A separate and substantial line of work examines family dynamics in later life, such as how divorce, remarriage, and the loss of family members affect the mental and physical health of older adults.
