Dr. Battaglia is a primary care clinician-investigator internationally recognized for her collaborative, innovative approaches to addressing health disparities among women historically marginalized. As director of the Women’s Health Unit and Women’s Health Interdisciplinary Research Center, associate chief of research for GIM and co-director of community engagement for the BU Clinical Translational Science Institute (CTSI), she has led the development of foundational infrastructure to support community-engaged methods in translational science. Her own research focuses on engaging with community to increase access to care for at-risk women, including ground-breaking work on the role of oncology patient navigators. Through her participation on several National Cancer Institute cooperative groups, she contributed to the 2012 Commission on Cancer Accreditation Standard requiring navigation services in cancer centers. As founding chair of the National Navigation Roundtable, she partners across sectors for sustainable navigation workforce. She currently leads a city-wide NIH study connecting multiple hospitals to reduce breast cancer disparities in Boston and contributed to two BU CTSI funding cycle renewals as well as Boston Medical Center’s participation in the HEALing Communities Study, an $89m award from the National Institute of Drug Abuse to evaluate community-driven approaches to reduce opioid deaths in Massachusetts communities.

Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Accessibility

My diagnosis of Stage IV Hodgkin’s Lymphoma at the time of my acceptance into Boston University School of Medicine was the first time I recognized my White privilege. As I embarked on my clinical training at Boston Medical Center, the largest safety net medical center in New England, I quickly learned that my experience as a cancer patient was unlike that of the patients I was providing care. It was this early experience that led me to a career that intentionally addressed health inequity through direct clinical care, health services innovations, community-engaged research approaches and capacity-building training programs to support others to advance health equity. For the next twenty years, I focused on using community engaged research approaches to form relationships with community partners to co-create solutions to ensure women from historically marginalized communities had access to timely, quality care. Through this work, I made major contributions to the evidence-base for oncology patient navigation, one of few interventions proven to reduce disparities in cancer care for women, while mentoring dozens of trainees toward independent careers in health equity research. Fast forward twenty years later. My diagnosis of HER2+ Stage 1 Breast Cancer allowed me once again to experience the stark reality of my White, now professional privilege. This experience, followed closely by the start of the COVID pandemic, was a catalyst for my firm commitment to creating an inclusive learning and practice environment. Every aspect of my academic work is built around the belief that addressing root causes of health inequity requires fundamentally changing the way we deliver care, including investing in long term authentic relationships across sectors, sharing power and resources, adapting policies and procedures, and redefining how we measure success. My current activities all align to make small, yet incremental change toward inclusivity, acceptance and impact.
