Beach, JD/PhD (they/them) is a Assistant Professor within the Department of Medical Social Sciences and Department of Preventive Medicine in the Feinberg School of Medicine at Northwestern University. They are the director of the ReACH Lab and ADVOCATE Program within Northwestern’s Institute for Sexual and Gender Minority Health and Wellbeing (ISGMH). Dr. Beach investigates the epidemiology of chronic physical health conditions over the life course among diverse SGM populations and people with HIV. They also studies how multilevel health and identity related stigmas affect chronic condition management and health outcomes of minoritized populations. The Advancing Opportunities in Clinical and Translational Equity in SGM Health (ADVOCATE SGM Health) Program is led by Director Lauren Beach, PhD, JD, and Associate Director Sumanas Jordan, MD, PhD. The program focuses on advocating for good quality care and research-practice-policy improvements in community and public health. The program has a special emphasis on health systems, health care, and health equality within the LGBTQ+ community. ADVOCATE centers the community throughout the research process to identify gaps in treatment and how clinicians and clinical practice can be adapted to better understand clinical care needs and experiences of the LGBTQ+ community. Within ADVOCATE, there are two cores: Electronic Medical Records (EMR) Data Core and the SSOGI Implementation Core. The EMR Data Core houses an Electronic Data Warehouse (EDW) derived dataset that includes patients who have sex assigned at birth, gender identity, sexual identity, and/or sexual behavior data on file. In addition to these data elements, the dataset includes other select demographic variables, social determinants of health, and health outcome variables (e.g., HIV status, PrEP use, and chronic disease outcomes). The implementation core focuses on implementing the scale up of SSOGI data capture within academic medicine and community health systems. ADVOCATE is also working on creating a mentorship and networking program to help connect individuals to opportunities. They are PI of a R01 in the CARDIA cohort to characterize the cardiovascular disease epidemiology and health disparities impacting SGM populations in the CARDIA cohort study (R01HL149866). They are also a PI for Project Recognize – a project to develop novel and standardized measures of sex, sexual orientation and gender identity (R01AA029076). Dr. Beach is also active in community engaged, evidence informed advocacy efforts to improve the health of bisexual populations. They is a founding Steering Committee Co-Chair of the Chicago Bisexual Health Task Force (CBHTF). They are also nationally active in bisexual health policy leadership circles and has spoken at the White House, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and the National Institutes of Health (NIH) to present recommendations for improving bisexual health outcomes and bisexual data collection methods.
