Rebecca M. Gardner
Ph.D. Student in Epidemiology and Clinical Research, admitted Autumn 2022
BioMy research interests are in maternal nutrition and well-being, with a focus on hyperemesis gravidarum (HG), defined as severe nausea and vomiting during pregnancy that often leads to significant maternal undernutrition, poor antepartum and postpartum mental health, and is the second leading cause of hospitalization during pregnancy. I am interested in the link between HG and maternal and child outcomes, particularly hypertensive disorders of pregnancy and neurobehavioral disorders in childhood like autism; and whether certain environmental exposures, including ambient air pollution and wildfires, exacerbate HG symptoms, leading to hospitalization. Additionally, I am interested in applying causal methods traditionally used in economics to public health.
Before starting a PhD, I was a biostatistician in the Quantitative Sciences Unit at Stanford for four years where I co-authored over thirty publications, collaborating with clinicians on various domains including developmental behavioral pediatrics, reproductive endocrinology & infertility, oncology, and clinical trials. I completed my MS in Statistics at Brigham Young University in 2016, where I collaborated with cardiologists to develop a new approach to diagnose rheumatic heart disease in pediatric patients in Samoa for my Master's thesis. -
