    Kayla de la Haye is an Associate Professor of Preventive Medicine at the University of Southern California, who specializes in applying social network analysis and systems science to health promotion and disease prevention. Her research, funded by the National Institutes of Health, the National Science Foundation, and the U.S. Department of Defense, targets family and community social networks to promote healthy eating and prevent childhood obesity, and explores the role of social networks in group problem solving in families, teams, and coalitions. Dr. de la Haye previously worked as an Associate Behavioral/Social Scientist at the RAND Corporation, and she is a member of the Board of Directors of the International Network of Social Network Analysis (INSNA). In 2018, she received the INSNA Freeman Award for significant contributions to the study of social structure. Dr. de la Haye holds a Ph.D. in psychology from the University of Adelaide, Australia.

    Collapse Research Activities and Funding
    In-home obesity prevention to reach low-income infants through maternal and social transmission
    NIH R01HD092483Sep 1, 2017 - May 31, 2022
    Role: Principal Investigator
    Building Social Networks to Improve Physical Activity and Weight Loss in Latino Parents
    NIH/NICHD R01HD084606Feb 18, 2016 - Jan 31, 2019
    Role: Co-Investigator
    Role Description: This project examines the complex relationship between social networks and peer influences on Latino adult physical activity and obesity in order to understand which types of networks facilitate (and which constrain) the diffusion of physical activity and weight loss through a community.
    Whole of Systems Trial of Prevention Strategies for Childhood Obesity: WHO STOPS Childhood Obesity
    National Health and Medical Research Council (Australia) APP1114118Feb 1, 2016 - Jan 31, 2019
    Role: Associate Investigator
    Role Description: This project aims to: 1) strengthen community action for childhood obesity prevention; and, 2) measure the impacts of increased action on risk factors for childhood obesity by working with local partners to embed best practice for obesity prevention into existing community systems (e.g. health, workplaces, local council, schools).
    Monitoring and Modeling Family Eating Dynamics (M2FED)
    National Science Foundation IIS-1521740Sep 1, 2015 - Aug 30, 2019
    Role: Co-Principal Investigator
    Role Description: This project proposes M2FED – an integrated system of in-home beacons, wireless and wearable sensors, and smartphones that provide ongoing, synchronized real-time data on in-home eating behaviors and theory-based process variables. This rich data will be aggregated to generate real-time contextual FED models using systems networks models. Key activities that precede target behaviors will be identified in order to develop and optimize future just-in-time, adaptive interventions.
    QUANTA: Quantitative Network-based Models of Adaptive Team Behavior
    DoD/Army Research Office W911NF-15-1-0577Jan 9, 2015
    Role: Co-Principal Investigator
    Role Description: The multidisciplinary, multi-institutional team will utilize expertise in cognitive and behavioral science, sociology, computer science, and network science to generate multilevel, dynamic models of teams and social groups that effectively explain various dimensions of group performance. The resulting conceptual and statistical models that relate group composition, interaction patterns, and network evolution to task performance, will break new ground in understanding the optimal design of teams for complex tasks.
