Bond is a behavioral scientist and sexual health educator who has centered her work on the complex intersections of race, sexuality, social justice, and health disparities among marginalized populations.

Current Work:
Dr. Bond is the principal investigator for a formative research study that explores the barriers and facilitators to Black women's use of oral pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) to develop an e-health intervention to increase knowledge of PrEP among that population called the L.O.V.E (Learning Options through Video Education) Study. In addition, she is also the principal investigator for the TURN IT UP! project which expands her research to develop sexual health and HIV risk reduction interventions for transgender women of color using e-health and mobile health technologies.
