Shreya Roy, of New Delhi, India, a student in health services research, administration, and policy in the College of Public Health at the University of Nebraska Medical Center. 
Roy is studying how Medicaid expansion for adults under the Affordable Care Act affects children’s health and educational outcomes. The study, which will look at a nationally representative sample of children ages 2 to 8, will examine whether Medicaid expansion for adults results in more preventive health care for their children, and whether that translates to better learning outcomes in early childhood. The study will also describe a model for pediatric care coordination for health care providers, schools, and early-intervention programs to improve the outcomes of children from low-income families.

Her faculty mentor is Dr. Fernando Wilson.
