Daniel Dohan, PhD is Associate Professor in the
Philip R. Lee
Institute for Health Policy Studies with a faculty appointment in the Department of Anthropology, History, and Social Medicine. He is also the Associate Director for Training at IHPS as well as the Director for UCSF Pathway to Discovery in Health and Society.
Dan’s research examines disparities, organizations, and quality with a focus on cancer. Current studies examine how disadvantaged patients are recruited to participate in cancer clinical trials and how to measure quality of care in oncology. He is also completing a multi-year study of social stigma in the provision of cancer and emergency care to the poor. With Professor Laura Schmidt, he has examined the effects of welfare reform on poor people with substance abuse problems. Dan’s work is primarily ethnographic, and he also combines ethnographic and quantitative approaches. His PhD is in sociology from UC Berkeley. He has published in a variety of journals including Health Services Research, Cancer, Ethnography, and Contemporary Drug Problems. A book based on his dissertation, The Price of Poverty: Money, Work, and Culture in the Mexican-American Barrio, was published by the University of California Press in 2003. |
