Julie S. Armin, PhD

Dr. Armin has an active research program centered on building an evidence base to help connect historically marginalized populations to health and social services. She is also a leader in the College of Medicine – Tucson, directing the health disparities curriculum in the undergraduate medical program. Most recently, Dr. Armin served as a building research capacity fellow through the Association of Departments of Family Medicine, during which she worked with other fellows and mentors to consider how team science might be improved in family medicine.

Dr. Armin is a member of the University of Arizona Cancer Center’s Cancer Prevention and Control program, as much of her work centers on cancer care along the continuum. Her long-term research goal is innovation in health services delivery, using community-informed approaches to increasing accessibility and availability of evidence-based cancer care. In doing so, she aims to address gaps in cancer prevention and treatment, as well as investigate communities’ disconnection from the services that support their health and wellness.
