Phillip Marotta

Phillip Marotta is a faculty affiliate of the Social Policy Institute and is leading health related research at the Institute. His research focuses on the impact of the criminal justice system on disparities in public health, with an emphasis on substance use treatment interventions in justice-involved populations and the HIV care continuum for justice-involved persons with substance use disorders.

Marotta recently received a National Service Award to examine the role of criminal justice involvement in retention, injection and sexual HIV risk behaviors, using data from three HIV prevention clinical trials with people who use drugs. Prior to his time at the Brown School, Marotta was a postdoctoral research fellow at Yale School of Medicine.
