Steven Korzeniewski, MD

With a broad multidisciplinary research background, Dr. Korzeniewski's specific training and expertise are in epidemiology. His graduate studies were supported by a pre-doctoral fellowship from then the Nation’s only NICHD sponsored T-32 training program in perinatal epidemiology. He was also competitively selected to participate in the second annual NICHD/Canadian Institute for Health Research Summer Institute in Reproductive and Perinatal Epidemiology.

Dr. Korzeniewski received continued post-doctoral mentorship with support from the Pediatric Research LRP program (L40 HD077654R2). During his graduate studies, he worked full time outside of academia in Michigan’s state health department, first as newborn screening epidemiologist and then as lead of Maternal and Child Health epidemiology. He also led the Department of Applied Epidemiology and Evaluation at MPRO, Michigan’s federally designated healthcare quality improvement organization.

After defending his doctoral dissertation in 2011, Dr. Korzeniewski was appointed to the faculty of the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology (OBGYN) at Wayne State University (WSU). For six years he served as an Associate Investigator in the NICHD intramural Program in Perinatal Research and Obstetrics (PPRO) located in Detroit. He was promoted to Associate Professor in 2017, when he transitioned to the Division of Reproductive Endocrinology and Infertility to serve as Director of Epidemiology and Translational Science. In 2019 Dr. Korzeniewski began his current role in the Integrative Biosciences (IBio) Center at WSU as Director of Epidemiology in the Biostatistical, Epidemiology & Research Design Core.
