For the last 20 years, I have used my formal training in clinical research methods to coordinate and conduct randomized controlled trials and cohort studies in the Emergency Department (ED) setting. I am an expert in the design, implementation and evaluation of novel interventions in the ED. I have over 20 years of experience as a Principal Investigator (PI) on NIH, CDC and Foundation funded research studies. My current area of focus is on improving the care and treatment of Emergency Department patients with opioid use disorder. I have been a part of the core investigatory team on two of the largest national trails examining ED initiation of buprenorphine for patients with untreated OUD.
