Biographical Sketch:
I have been the Director of the PHSKC STD Control Program since 2006 and am currently an Associate Professor of Medicine at the University of Washington. I have published over 50 scientific studies, many in the area of STD/HIV partner services. Since 1998, I have had a particular interest in research related to expedited partner therapy for gonorrhea and chlamydial infection, and the attached abstract presents preliminary process outcome results from an ongoing, NIH funded communty-level randomized trial of expedited partner therapy.
