Dr. Tiffany Green is an economist and population health scientist and a nationally recognized expert in racial/ethnic and nativity disparities in reproductive health. She is currently assistant professor of population health sciences and obstetrics and gynecology at the University of Wisconsin-Madison.
Tiffany’s research focuses primarily on understanding the individual-, family-, and structural-level determinants of racial disparities in women’s health and birth outcomes. Tiffany’s mission is to shed light on how and why Black women, regardless of socioeconomic status experience the worst maternal and child health outcomes of any racial/ethnic group—and what evidence-based solutions might ameliorate these persistent inequalities in health and wellbeing.
She is also currently investigating the contributions of racial/ethnic bias to health-related disparities in childbearing and other populations. Most recently, she was selected as a member of the inaugural cohort of the Society of Family Planning’s Changemakers in Family Planning Grant Program, is a Temple Center for Public Health Law Research Fellow and is a University of Wisconsin-Madison School of Medicine and Public Health Centennial Scholar. Finally, Tiffany serves as the co-chair of the Black Maternal and Child Health Alliance of Dane County, a coalition committed to centering the voices of Black mothers and ensuring that Black children are free to reach their highest potential.
Tiffany earned her Ph.D. in Economics from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and her B.A. in Economics from Florida A&M University
