Dr. Sujan Anreddy is an associate research professor at Mississippi State University’s Social Science Research Center. He holds a Ph.D. in Computer Science, specializing in Visualization. His research combines human-centered computing, data science, and visual analytics to address community health and safety challenges.

He studies the health information-seeking behavior of multiple population groups, including older adults aged 50 and above with self-reported disabilities, veterans, and caregivers of adults aged 50 and older, as they search, locate, evaluate, and use health information from various digital sources. His work explores their information needs, preferences, and barriers to accessing trustworthy information across digital platforms, including AI-based conversational tools. His presentation on digital health information access among older adults was selected for the Presidential Strand at the American Evaluation Association’s (AEA) Evaluation 2025 Conference.

Dr. Anreddy leads and contributes to externally funded research at the SSRC, working with students to develop data-driven, human-centered solutions for public health and safety professionals. These include TRAPS, a decision-support tool for public health program evaluators. TRAPS was featured in one of two presentations selected for the best data practices session at the 2024 Awardee Meeting of CDC’s National Center for Chronic Disease Prevention and Health Promotion, where each state health department was invited to nominate two of its best practices. He and his students also developed an analytical tool that helps Mississippi’s public safety professionals explore traffic crashes, injury severity, and contributing factors to inform traffic safety interventions. His recent research has examined teen driver crash involvement and associated risk factors, and he regularly presents this work at the ATSIP's Traffic Records Forum.

He teaches courses in Mississippi State University’s Computer Science and Engineering department and mentors graduate and undergraduate students. He served as chair of AEA’s Integrating Technology into Evaluation (ITE) Topical Interest Group in 2025 and as its program chair in 2024.
