Alexandra Morshed
Bio
Alexandra B. Morshed, PhD, MS, is an implementation scientist with a substantive focus on prevention of weight-related chronic disease, including obesity, diabetes, and cancer. She has more than 10 years of experience in public health research and practice, primarily focused on implementing interventions in vulnerable populations, policy adoption, and capacity building and knowledge expansion in dissemination and implementation (D&I) science. Her research largely utilizes a D&I lens based on the recognition that research-to-practice gaps exist and contribute to disease prevalence and disparities. She carried out her doctoral and postdoctoral training at Washington University in St. Louis and earned a master of science from Wageningen University in the Netherlands.
