Julie Adams, MD

Dr. Julie Adams is the faculty mentor for psychiatry residents in the Duke Global Health Residency track. Before joining faculty she trained as a resident at Duke and traveled to Moshi, Tanzania for an extended elective rotation. She has since developed collaborations with researchers in Tanzania and across disciplines at Duke in the Department of Psychology, the Center for Health Policy, and the Duke Global Health Institute. These collaborations have lead to the rapid build-up of projects in Tanzania designed to study the intersection of mental illness and HIV infection, and to increase and improve mental health service provision in the region. As a senior research fellow in the Health Inequalities Program in the Center for Health Policy, Dr. Adams provides expertise to population-based studies conducted by a team of epidemiologists in multi-national, longitudinal studies. Her experience and collaborations provide a variety of opportunities for Global Health Residents to become involved and practice their clinical and research skills.
