Hannah Lee

Hannah Grace Lee is a second-year Master of Science student in the Department of Population Health Sciences at Duke University School of Medicine. She earned her Bachelor of Science in Cell and Molecular Neuroscience from Florida State University and is currently pursuing advanced training in epidemiology and population health sciences. Her research interests center on infectious disease transmission and prevention, particularly how demographic factors and social contexts influence engagement in protective health behaviors and population-level outcomes.

Her current research focus is on sustained adherence to preventive health behaviors and how demographic, social network, and structural factors shape long-term engagement in protective behaviors, particularly during a pandemic.

She has presented her work at conferences such as the American Public Health Association (APHA) Annual Meeting and the International Association for Relationship Research (IARR) Biennial Meeting. She is also the first author on a peer-reviewed manuscript published in Health & Place. Her current ongoing projects bridge quantitative epidemiologic methods, behavioral science, and applied health research to inform evidence-based infectious disease prevention.
