Amelia Greiner Safi joined the Department of Communication in Fall 2015 as a Senior Research Associate, directing an NIH- and FDA-funded grant (PIs Sahara Byrne and Jeff Niederdeppe) on FDA-approved graphic warning labels on cigarette packages. In this lecture, she’ll share her experiences leading a Robert Wood Johnson Foundation-funded health impact assessment of Baltimore City’s zoning rewrite, assessing the reporting of fish consumption advisories by the FDA and EPA and the economic, health and ecologic impacts of the BP Deepwater Horizon oil spill, and directing and evaluating a city-wide health communication campaign to increase HIV screening among primary care providers in Baltimore City. Prior to her position at Cornell, she was an Assistant Professor at the Edward J Bloustein School of Planning and Public Policy at Rutgers and faculty at the Center for Child and Community Health Research at the Johns Hopkins School of Medicine. She completed her master’s degree in Communication at Cornell in 2006 and her Ph.D. in the Department of Health, Behavior and Society at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health in 2011.
