My cancer relevant research interests span the breadth of cancer care, from screening and prevention through diagnosis and survivorship, identifying gaps and developing best practices in cancer care across the continuum. Improving access to high quality services and interventions, such as patient navigation, that can help reduce racial disparities in cancer outcomes. Much of my work has focused health systems research, health literacy and numeracy, and implementation science as it relates to best practices to integrate both survivorship care and to cancer genetics services with personalized cancer risk management.
