    Outcomes Research, Health Services Research, Hematologic Malignancies

    The focus of my research is to understand patterns of care, comparative effectiveness of treatments, and quality of care for patients with hematologic malignancies, throughout the continuum of disease from diagnosis through the end of life (EOL). I am interested in developing targeted interventions to improve the quality of care for patients with hematologic malignancies.
