Leslie is an Associate in the Health Systems Program with the Public Health Operations and Research (PHICOR) Group. She has been a part of PHICOR since August of 2011 and was formally a Senior Analyst at the University of Pittsburgh. Leslie received a Bachelor of Science in Physiology and Developmental Biology with a minor in Molecular Biology from Brigham Young University in 2011 and a Master’s in Public Health in Epidemiology from the University of Pittsburgh in December of 2012. Her current research primarily focuses on operational modeling of various health care associated infections (HAIs), the effects of patient sharing among hospital networks and vaccine supply chains.
