DART Lab Co-Director

Research Assistant Professor, School of Public and Community Health Sciences

Experienced in public policy related to human services, corrections, violence prevention and public health, Dr. Goldstine-Cole’s research to date has mixed interviews, surveys, and latent variable analysis. She is interested in how knowledge and understanding of developmental adversity alters organizational/community focus, performance, and sustainability, and how those changes impact social and health outcomes for the population. In addition, she is pursuing questions of working across the silos of funding, policy, and program management that constitute governance in the major systems addressing developmental adversity and its sequelae.
