CSCH highlighted the work of HDFS Assistant Professor Ryan Watson in December and January. We interviewed Dr. Watson for a two-part podcast about his research. In Part 1 Watson discussed his research on disparities in access to HIV prevention tools among young men who have sex with men. In Part 2 he discussed his research on sexual and gender minority youth and their substance abuse.

His research with CSCH graduate affiliate Timothy McKay on gender expansive youth was also featured in our January 2020 CSCH brief, Supporting Gender Expansive Youth: Considerations for Healthcare Providers.
