个人简介
Dr Kerr's research focuses on changing health behaviors with a special emphasis on cancer prevention and control by understanding how environments influence cancer risk factors, especially physical activity. She currently has grants on increasing physical activity in older adults in senior centers and reducing sitting time in post-menopausal Latinas. Interventions are her passion, particularly the work in senior centers where she trains older adults to become program leaders and community advocates. However, Dr. Kerr also understands the need for accurate measurement of behaviors and environments. This has led her to develop new computational techniques for the processing of GPS and accelerometer data. These new techniques, especially when used for older adults, help to shed light on when and where behavioral changes take place as well as the environmental predictors of such events. She is working with the Mobile Data to Knowledge initiative to develop "just-in-time" interventions that draw on spatial, temporal, and behavioral data. Her dream project would be to develop a multilevel mobile and online platform connected to cities to encourage walking and walkability as called for by the Surgeon General.
