Arielle N’Diaye is a rising third-year doctoral student in the Department of Health Promotion, Education, and Behavior in the Arnold School of Public Health at the University of South Carolina. Her research interests focus on the sexual and reproductive health (SRH) experiences of sexual minority populations, asset and justice-based approaches to family planning research, and the SRH experiences of people living with HIV. As a research assistant with the SmartState Center for Health Care Quality, she was an integral member of a study team examining the longitudinal impact of residential segregation on gonorrhea and chlamydia incidence, the experiences of people living with HIV during the COVID-19 pandemic, and efforts to minimize social and statistical bias within big data studies using electronic health records. She is currently developing her dissertation, a mixed-methods study of the SRH experiences and needs of Black bisexual women in the U.S. South. The Emerging Scholars grant will support her in completing the quantitative phase of her dissertation, which involves a survey to understand how reproductive health care access, person-centered contraceptive counseling, preference-aligned contraceptive use, and reproductive autonomy may vary among Black bisexual and heterosexual women in the South. Participants will be recruited using a Qualtrics panel, community-based sampling, and snowball sampling. Findings from this study will illuminate the unique reproductive health care needs of Black bisexual women in the South and will be used to inform interventions focused on increasing access to affirming, person-centered reproductive health care services among this population.
