Dr. Lisa A. Frazier is a Senior Researcher at the Battelle Center, serving as the point person for the Center’s initiatives for complex problems in technology and human health. Her approach to teaching, research, management, and engagement with community partners is grounded in the understanding that policy is a determinant of health, and thus that public policy can be a mechanism for achieving health equity and advancing social justice. A dedicated teacher and collaborative researcher, Lisa is concerned with solving wicked public problems through structural innovation and training the next generation of the citizen-workforce to do the same. Lisa is a scholar of health policy, holding a bachelor’s degree in anthropology and political ecology from Mount Holyoke College as a Phi Beta Kappa, Mary Lyon Scholar; a master’s degree in public health (epidemiology) from The Ohio State University College of Public Health; and a doctoral degree in public policy and management from The Ohio State University John Glenn College of Public Affairs. She utilizes her training in the social and policy sciences to examine how structures of public decision-making affect health, equity, and justice among diverse American populations.
