Biosketch

Dr. Burrage’s work focuses around the development of culturally sensitive and linguistically-appropriate psychosocial interventions related to care seeking and access to health care of people at risk for and infected with HIV disease and other stigmatizing illnesses. His current research has evolved from his early work developing methods to evaluate psychosocial programs offered by community based AIDS service organizations to continue and improve those programs.

His current NINR funded research, Salivary Rapid HIV Testing: Health Seeking and Coping in African Americans (7K01NR10086-01) seeks to support the community at large to begin to focus on HIV testing and ways to accomplish testing that is culturally sensitive and less stigmatizing. Nationally, he serves as both a member of the Board of Directors and a Distinguished Lecturer for the Association of Nurses in AIDS Care and locally he serves in the Board of Directors of the Damien Center in Indianapolis. He teaches in the administration track in the MSN program.
