Research Interests
The focus of my research is rehabilitation outcomes with an emphasis on the assessment of functional status, disability, frailty and minority health in older adults. My recent research has focused on system outcomes such as hospital readmission and discharge destination following post-acute care. I maintain an interest in methodological and data analysis issues related to clinical and population health research.
