Dr. Ragavan's research focuses on sustaining equitable community-academic collaborations, which amplify community priorities and engage communities in the research process. She applies this approach to several topic areas, including intimate partner violence (IPV) and dating violence prevention, language justice, culturally affirming care, and, most recently, COVID-19 vaccine equity.
