Dr. Richardson has been involved in clinical trials and HIV/AIDS and microbicide research since 1994. She is an author on more than 80 peer-reviewed articles in the areas of HIV/AIDS, other sexually transmitted diseases, and statistical methodology for data from infectious disease research. Dr. Richardson has significantly contributed to the design of several HIV microbicide research trials, including preparedness studies, safety studies (Phase I and II), and efficacy trials (Phase IIB and III). Specifically, Dr. Richardson has been (or is actively) lead statistician on the following microbicide trials: HIVNET 003 (Phase II/III), HIVNET 016 (Phase II), HIVNET 020 (Phase I), HPTN 032 (Phase I), HPTN 035 (Phase II/IIB), HPTN 047 (Phase I), and HPTN 049 (Phase I). Dr. Richardson served as a member of the HPTN Microbicide Working Group and is the SDMC PI for the recently completed NICHD-funded Hormonal Contraception and Risk of HIV-1 Acquisition (HC-HIV) study. Finally, Dr. Richardson, a recipient of the International AIDS Society (IAS) Young Investigator award (2000), has been a member of several national and international review committees, and has advised various entities (including the World Health Organization (WHO) and the IAS Ghent Group) on statistical issues in infectious disease.
