Research Interests

My major research interest is clinical research informatics, including design, implementation, and usability evaluation of patient-centric applications, integration of electronic health records and patient-reported outcomes, and data governance and data quality management in clinical research. Currently I lead user interface design and data management in the AHRQ-funded national research program, Function and Outcomes Research for Comparative Effectiveness in Total Joint Replacement (FORCE-TJR).
