Her scholarship and teaching explore intersections of state power, policy, and practice, social and bodily vulnerability, and health care inequality in United States. She has worked for fourteen years on discerning racial, class, and gendered dimensions of HIV-related health inequalities, and the relationships between federal public health care policy and the structure and content of local initiatives for the health care and support of HIV-positive women. During this time, she has conducted extensive ethnographic research among HIV-positive women and their service providers in Denver, Colorado, “Midway,” North Carolina, and Indianapolis, Indiana. Her HIV/AIDS related work has been published in journalssuch as Medical Anthropology, Human Organization, and Transforming Anthropology. Her recent book-length ethnography, Holding On: African American Women Surviving HIV/AIDS, was published by University of Nebraska Press in 2016. More recently, Dr. O’Daniel’s research program has expanded to include examining response to the migrant death crisis in South Texas.  In partnership with the humanitarian forensic science team from the University of Indianapolis, the project explores volunteer forensic science as a crucial, yet politically-fraught part of the human migration story.
