Assistant Professor
Northeastern University
Benita Bamgbade is an Assistant Professor of Pharmacy and Health Systems Sciences at Northeastern University. The target of Dr. Bamgbade’s research program is to identify factors that influence the health and medication-taking behaviors of adults with psychiatric multimorbidity that can be useful targets for patient-centered interventions. Dr. Bamgbade places particular emphasis on conducting patient-centered research through the use of “real world” observational data, patient reported outcomes and direct patient and stakeholder engagement. She is currently funded by an NIH K01 Career Development Award from the National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute where she is examining the longitudinal impact of psychiatric multimorbidity (i.e., dyads and the triad of depression, anxiety and cognitive impairment) on oral anticoagulant use and outcomes in patients with atrial fibrillation. A Texas native, she earned her PharmD and PhD in Pharmaceutical Sciences from the University of Texas at Austin.
