Research

Sterk has been Charles Howard Candler Professor of Public Health at Emory since 2000. Sterk is a leading figure in both public health and anthropology studying addiction, mental health, and HIV/AIDS. She was the first person to identify the risk of HIV infection due to unprotected sex among crack cocaine users.

Sterk received a PhD in sociology from Erasmus University in Rotterdam and her doctorandus degree in medical anthropology from the University of Utrecht.[4] Her undergraduate degree is from the Free University in Amsterdam.[2]

Sterk is the author of two books—Fast Lives: Women Who Use Crack Cocaine and Tricking and Tripping: Prostitution in the Era of AIDS.[5] She has since written another book.[6] She has also published more than 100 articles and book chapters.[6]

She became President of Emory on September 1, 2016.[2] Prior to that time, she had served as provost and executive vice president for academic affairs.[4] She held the position of president in the Alcohol, Drug, and Tobacco section of the American Sociological Association.[6] Sterk is the principal investigator of Building Interdisciplinary Research Careers in Women's Health, which is funded by the Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development.[2]

In November 2019, Sterk announced that she would resign as Emory president at the end of the 2019–2020 school year and return to teaching in the Rollins School of Public Health.[7]

Sterk speaks four languages.[2]
