Overview

Deanna Kerrigan is affiliated with Johns Hopkins University in the United States and focuses on research within the field of medicine, specifically targeting infectious diseases, epidemiology, and the sociopolitical dimensions of health. Their work is situated at the intersection of HIV/AIDS research and interventions, addressing complexities around drug use, sexual risk behaviors, and social factors related to health outcomes.

The scope of their research includes an emphasis on sex work and related issues, LGBTQ health, adolescent sexual and reproductive health, as well as HIV-related health complications and treatments. These thematic areas reflect a blend of epidemiological investigation and social psychology perspectives, encompassing both biomedical and social determinants of health.

Among their recent published work are several papers that explore long-acting injectable antiretroviral therapy (ART) and pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) interventions:

  • "Multisite Study of Women Living With HIV's Perceived Barriers to, and Interest in, Long-Acting Injectable Antiretroviral Therapy" (2020) published in JAIDS Journal of Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndromes
  • "Interest in Long-Acting Injectable Pre-exposure Prophylaxis (LAI PrEP) Among Women in the Women's Interagency HIV Study (WIHS): A Qualitative Study Across Six Cities in the United States" (2020) published in AIDS and Behavior
  • ""A dream come true": Perspectives on long-acting injectable antiretroviral therapy among female sex workers living with HIV from the Dominican Republic and Tanzania" (2020) published in PLoS ONE
  • "Multi-level considerations for optimal implementation of long-acting injectable antiretroviral therapy to treat people living with HIV: perspectives of health care providers participating in phase 3 trials" (2021) published in BMC Health Services Research
  • "HIV-Related Intersectional Stigma and Discrimination Measurement: State of the Science" (2022) published in American Journal of Public Health

Frequent coauthors collaborating with Kerrigan include Clare Barrington, Yeycy Donastorg, Martha Pérez, Tahilin Sanchez Karver, and Hoisex Gómez, reflecting a network of researchers engaged in HIV and social health research. Kerrigan has contributed to venues such as UNC Libraries, AIDS and Behavior, PLoS ONE, PLOS Global Public Health, and Open Forum Infectious Diseases.

Their work frequently appears in publications that integrate biomedical research with social and behavioral sciences, highlighting the multidisciplinary nature of ongoing HIV research efforts. The research addresses barriers and facilitators of new HIV prevention and treatment technologies and investigates intersectional stigma and discrimination related to HIV status.
