EJB Talks: Rutgers Bloustein School Experts
This week on EJB Talks, new Bloustein School Assistant Professor Zoe Lindenfeld talks to Dean Stuart Shapiro about her research on substance use disorders, particularly the opioid crisis, and its ties to healthcare access and policy.

A particular area of interest in her work is closing gaps in access to treatment, including studying the impact of telemedicine on substance use care. She also delves into her recent study of fiscal determinants of overdose deaths, finding that higher police spending—particularly when linked to revenue-generating practices—correlates with increased overdose deaths.

1 Understanding the Politics of Community Health Centers and Place-Based Healthcare with Emily Parker 18:32
This week Stuart Shapiro talks to Assistant Professor Emily Parker about her research interests in community health centers and how they originated from her work assisting with Affordable Care Act implementation in New York state. In this EJB Talks episode, she explains what federally qualified health centers (FQHCs) are and their history in serving underserved communities.
