Dr. Alison Huang is Professor of Medicine, Urology, and Epidemiology & Biostatistics; Director of Research for General Internal Medicine at UCSF Health; Director of the UCSF Women's Health Clinical Research Center; and a clinical scientist dedicated to advancing scientific understanding and improving management of the impact of aging on women’s health and genitourinary health. She leads a multidisciplinary team of clinical and translational scientists in investigating shared factors underlying relationships between common genitourinary health conditions and overlapping aging syndromes such as cognitive and physical function decline, sleep disruption, and depression. She has designed and led multiple NIH-funded randomized trials of pharmacologic, behavioral, and integrative health interventions in midlife and older women that leverage findings from her epidemiological research on urinary incontinence, overactive bladder, urogenital atrophy, and menopause symptoms. She has also developed and validated patient-reported outcome measures of genitourinary health and function in older women of diverse backgrounds that have been adopted and translated into multiple languages by investigators in the U.S. and internationally. She directs NIH-funded training programs and teaches clinical research methods courses for early-stage investigators based in the UCSF Department of Epidemiology & Biostatistics and the UCSF Clinical & Translational Science Institute. With the support of an NIH K24 mentoring award, she mentors early-stage investigators in designing clinical research studies and launching research careers focused on aging women's health, genitourinary health, and behavioral, pharmacologic, and integrative health interventions. As a general internal medicine physician, she provides primary care to adults of all ages in UCSF Health's General Medicine Practice.
