Gabriel Gulis is an Associate Professor at the Unit for Health Promotion Research of the Department of Public Health, Faculty of Health Sciences, at the University of Southern Denmark, Esbjerg Campus, a position he has held since 2005. He started his career in nuclear and environmental health and moved from there to public health. His work now focuses mainly on health promotion, health impact assessment, and the role of public health policy in improving population health.
Gabriel Gulis is interested in understanding health inequalities between countries and the factors that underlie them. Currently, Professor Gulis is analysing burden of disease data to study epidemiological transitions, using environmental and social variables to assess how different exposures influence health outcomes. These data are versatile, enriching health knowledge across diverse countries and context.
His research uses a variety of methods including mixed methods, time trend analysis, health impact assessment and breakpoint joint analysis.
His interest in global health began with fieldwork in Kenya and the United States, where he observed the impact of global determinants on local health outcomes. One of the most exciting aspects of associate Professor Gulis' work in global health is the diversity of values and approaches to health challenges. He is deeply motivated by the insights of local populations in different regions and emphasises the importance of listening to communities to achieve equity in health outcomes.
Associate Professor Gulis' work aligns with several of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly, SDG 3 (health and well-being), SDG 5 (gender equality) and SDG 17 (partnerships for the goals). While the specific SDG focus may vary from project to project, the commitment to advancing the SDGs remains constant.
Gabriel Gulis has a long history of collaboration with international associations and academic institutions. He is a former member of the European Public Health Association and collaborates with the WHO Regional Office for Europe in Copenhagen, Denmark and Bonn, Germany. He also contributes to the work of DANIDA. In addition to his research, he supervises doctoral students from universities around the world, fostering links between academic institutions and supporting young researchers.
At SDU, Associate Professor Gulis is committed to creating opportunities for students and young researchers. Through his work, he regularly creates new positions for those interested in joining his projects, providing new opportunities for collaboration and professional development.
