Dr. Angela Kaida recently spoke with Am Johal at the Below the Radar podcast to discuss how she utilizes an interdisciplinary, community-driven and ethics-based approach to her research and how it has enriched her work.

Kaida is an Associate Professor in the Faculty of Health Sciences at SFU and a global health epidemiologist. She was also a Researcher-in-Residence at CERi in the Fall 2020 Semester. Her research focuses on the linkages between HIV and sexual and reproductive health for women and nonbinary people.

 “Working from a model of reciprocity has really strengthened what we’re capable of doing,” says Kaida, adding that relationship-building as one of the biggest joys of the work she does. Two of her most recent projects, which CERi has supported her the Community-Engaged Research Funding Program, include Life and Love with HIV and the CHIWOS-PAW projects.
