Michele Staton, PhD

Professor, University of Kentucky College of Medicine

Dr. Michele Staton is a Professor in the Department of Behavioral Science, and a Faculty Associate of the Center on Drug and Alcohol Research. Her research focuses primarily on justice-involved individuals with substance use disorders in rural communities, with a specific focus on high-risk related health consequences including HIV and HCV. Dr. Staton serves as PI on a number of NIH/NIDA-funded projects, including the Kentucky hub of the Justice Community Opioid Innovation Network (JCOIN). As the only JCOIN site to focus exclusively on women, this study aims to increase utilization of medication to treat opioid use disorder among women during the transition from jail to the community.
