Nan Kong's recent work spans several public health topics, including community-based approaches to youth substance use, opioid overdose event modeling, food insecurity and depression, epidemic control strategies using testing data, and structural factors in breast cancer treatment side effects. The work often uses quantitative and computational modeling methods (such as point processes and continual learning) applied to health and social outcomes data. Prospective students would likely engage with data-driven public health and operations research methods applied to substance use, infectious disease control, and cancer-related health outcomes.
