Her research is informed by the interdisciplinary field of science, technology, and medicine studies (ST&MS), which views science and technology as the products of particular social, cultural, political, and historical contexts. Within this framework, she investigates how material conditions and cultures shape scientific inquiry as well as the politics and social consequences of biomedical knowledge and technologies. Her primary research uses qualitative methods, which is combined with her expertise in molecular genetics, public health, and sociology. The scope of her current research examines intersectional and structural inequalities that shape disparities to autism diagnosis and services.
