Research Summary
My primary research goal is to improve the quality of life of pediatric hematology and oncology patients. I have several ongoing health services projects focused on palliative and end-of life care for pediatric cancer patients. As part of the Hemophilia Treatment Center, I am also conducting clinical and quality improvement research in our patients with bleeding and clotting disorders.
