Dr. Lu’s research centers around three foci: (1) tracking and analyzing resources invested in global health and evaluating their effectiveness for improving health care coverage and health outcomes among the vulnerable populations; (2) conducting economic evaluation on policy or medical interventions that aim at reducing health inequality and achieving universal health coverage; and (3) assessing inequalities in early childhood development and adolescent health and development. Currently, Dr. Lu is leading economic analysis on community interventions for maternal and child health in Ethiopia and mental health in India. She is also leading a global assessment of young children exposed to risk factors of poor development as well as global investments in young children’ development.
