Prior Experience
Recent projects have included (with Hillary Lum and Stacy Fischer) a supplement to the Palliative Care Research Cooperative examining the social, cultural, and ethical factors that promote COVID-19 vaccination among the understudied, underserved, underrepresented population of home health aides nationally and a bioethics supplement within the UJMT consortium (with Benjamin Chi, Valerie Paz Soldan, Lameck Chinula, and Limbanazo Matandika) to develop new training materials on “decolonizing” global health. In 2022, he completed a project, with Co-PI Dr. Anthony So, a Greenwall Foundation funded project examining ethical challenges in the mass drug administration of antibiotics globally - findings are available here. After original funding from an NIH bioethics supplement, Dr. DeCamp continues to serve as Ethics & Engagement Advisor for the Palliative Care Research Cooperative Group.
