    Research

    Overview

    Throughout my time at Yale, I have engaged in initiatives focused on shaping clinical decision making from the perspectives of both the clinician and the patient and their care partners. My most significant works to date have included my projects for the Yale PSM Consortium, where I was the resident lead on the appendiceal neoplasm guidelines team as well as the co-lead for malignant GI obstruction guidelines; and the DECISIVE project, where my team has focused on building a web-based tool to support informational satisfaction and decision-making for patients considering cytoreductive surgery for their advanced abdominal cancers.
