Professor Carrie Dolan, Explorers Club 50 Class of 2023
Congratulations to one of our Explorers Club Washington Groups’ very own, Professor Carrie Dolan, for being selected to the 2023 Class of the prestigious Explorers Club 50!
As a spatial epidemiologist at William & Mary, Assistant Professor Carrie Dolan’s research and teaching expertise in global health are tightly integrated through her work as the Director of Ignite, a multidisciplinary research lab based in William & Mary’s Global Research Institute and in partnership with the Department Kinesiology. Her research is grounded in a well-established framework for evidence-based global health, focusing on the effective, efficient, and equitable distribution of global health resources, especially among women and children.

Carrie has logged enough time investigating health care issues in the world’s remote locations from Jamaica to Kenya to be named a Fellow of the Explorers Club. Her on-site work is vital to understanding the effectiveness of individual public health initiatives and pointing out where things aren’t working. Carrie’s work contributes value in three arenas that don’t always overlap: practitioners in the area of study, governmental and funding agencies, and academia. Her research includes a hefty data science component and she is a member of the AidData Research Consortium and the Center for Geospatial Analysis Steering Committee at William & Mary. (1)
