Dr. Meyer is an Associate Professor of Medicine and Public Health at Yale, and the Program Director of the Infectious Disease fellowship training program. She is a practicing physician who is board-certified in Internal Medicine, Infectious Diseases, and Addiction Medicine. Following her clinical training, she was awarded a NIDA K23 Award and a Doris Duke Charitable Foundation Clinical Scientist Development Award. She additionally completed a Master of Science in Biostatistics and Epidemiology from Yale School of Public Health. Her NIH-funded clinical research lab focuses on HIV prevention and treatment for women, addressing social and structural determinants of health. Her team systematically developed and published the first PrEP decision aid, which they tailored to women with substance use disorders in treatment settings. In subsequent projects, they have adapted the PrEP decision aid to women with criminal legal system involvement and opioid use disorder (NIDA R01) or alcohol use disorder (NIAAA R01), and Black women experiencing intimate partner violence in domestic violence service settings (NIMH R34.) Other projects have focused on integrated housing services and treatment for substance use disorder (SAMHSA) and assessing the impact of intimate partner violence on women’s HIV care engagement (NIMH R01.) To date, she has published nearly 80 manuscripts in high impact peer-reviewed journals with 3,540 citations. Dr. Meyer is internationally recognized as an expert on infectious diseases in the criminal legal system, and has served as a consultant to the Federal Bureau of Prisons, the American Civil Liberties Union, the US Commission on Civil Rights, the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime, and the World Health Organization.
