“I am a community centred scientist, meaning I don’t do any public health work that
is not relevant to the community”, says Carlos E Rodríguez-Díaz, Associate Professor
and Vice Chair of the Department of Prevention and Community Health at George Washington
University–Milken Institute School of Public Health in Washington, DC, USA. His research
focuses on public health intervention development with and for populations made socially
vulnerable in Puerto Rico, the Caribbean region, and the USA, including people with
HIV, incarcerated individuals, Latinx people, and sexual and gender minority groups.
