I primarily do health services research and quality improvement. This includes research projects that I lead and also those I consult and collaborate on.
What current project or initiative at UNC are you involved in that you are excited about?
I am excited about a multi-disciplinary initiative called Supporting Appropriate Implementation of Lung Cancer Screening (SAILS) at UNC. The SAILS initiative aims to develop and test tools and processes for the responsible implementation of lung cancer screening using Low Dose Computed Tomography (LDCT), which was recently recommended by the US Preventive Services Task Force.

I love that UNC Chapel Hill is a collegial place to work.
