Snapshot

As an implementation scientist, I specialize in researching the methods and strategies used to support the integration and sustainability of evidence-based interventions, practices, and policies into health systems. I work to bridge the gap between advances in infectious diseases care and equitable health outcomes for marginalized populations. My research program seeks to generate critical evidence to inform the implementation of accessible and equitable care for HIV and viral hepatitis in community organizations serving key populations, and to develop methodological knowledge in implementation science.

Major Research Activities

As an implementation scientist and health services researcher, I work across disciplines and settings to improve access to high-quality care for different populations and solve challenges within the health care system. My research program focuses on the methodological approaches used throughout implementation research to support adoption, penetration and sustainability of evidence-based interventions, practices, programs and policies in healthcare, with a focus on infectious diseases.

 

The specific research areas in my laboratory include:

  • Implementation research to support the adoption, penetration, and sustainability of evidence-based prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of infectious diseases such as COVID-19, viral hepatitis, HIV, and sexually transmitted infections.
  • Systematic reviews, meta-analyses, scoping reviews, umbrella reviews and other knowledge syntheses to generate comprehensive understandings of existing evidence in implementation science and infectious diseases.
  • Advancing and applying implementation science theories, models, frameworks and methods to develop and evaluate interventions aimed at promoting health behaviour change/healthcare professionals’ behaviour change in implementing evidence-based practices.
  • Exploration of social and cultural factors that affect implementation and healthcare access, focusing on the intersections of race, gender, sexuality, and other social identities.
  • Systematic reviews, meta-analyses, scoping reviews, umbrella reviews and other knowledge syntheses to generate comprehensive understandings of existing evidence in implementation science and infectious diseases.
