Population Council Research that makes a difference

M.E. Khan, Ph.D.

Senior Associate

M.E. Khan has over 35 years' experience undertaking public health research that seeks to improve service delivery in maternal and child care, family planning, safe motherhood, and abortion. He is a senior associate in the Population Council's India office and chief of party of a consortium of six major organizations on a Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation project to develop a behavior change communication strategy to improve reproductive, maternal, newborn, and child health and nutrition outcomes in northern India.

Until recently, Khan served as regional associate director of the Asia and Near East region for the Council's Frontiers in Reproductive Health project, a USAID-funded global project on reproductive health operations research. Khan has worked at the Population Council since 1990 and has been based in the organization's India and Bangladesh offices. Many of his interventions have been scaled up on a national scale (emergency contraceptive pills in Bangladesh) and on the subregional/state level in India and Nepal.

Throughout his career, Khan has had a particular interest in capacity building and training in operations research. Most recently, he has been instrumental in developing a range of training tools and curricula and has partnered with WHO’s Reproductive Health and Research (RHR) department to build professional research capacity in Egypt, Pakistan, Thailand, and Vietnam, as well as for individual researchers from several countries in Central Asia and Eastern Europe.  Khan as authored over 100 books, chapters, and peer-reviewed journal articles, as well as numerous published reports.
