Area of Interest
I am an implementation scientist and health services researcher. My research aims to develop and evaluate strategies that improve the uptake of evidence-based cancer care using pragmatic and hybrid implementation-effectiveness trials.
For example, our research team is developing and testing strategies to improve access to dietitian care among cancer patients at increased risk for malnutrition through an embedded pragmatic trial. Our team is also developing and testing strategies to improve access to supportive care and health coaching services among individuals with cancer.
I also support other research teams interested in improving the uptake of evidence-based cancer care and serve as an implementation science methodologist on several hybrid implementation-effectiveness trials.
