About
I am an Intensivist, Pulmonologist and Geriatrician. My clinical interests are preserving older adults functionality by focusing on disorders of the respiratory system, and managing issues faced by survivors of severe critical illness. My research focus on reducing the incidence and impact of delirium. Primarily, I am interested in using pharmacogenetics driven medication selection to reduce delirium in the ICU setting. I also have an interest and expertise in using telemedicine for delirium assessment.
