Current Research Interests
- Interdisciplinary team coordination, communication and continuity of patient care to identify and mitigate vulnerabilities in team coordination that may present risks to patient care and safety.
- Resilience engineering and Implementation Science to better understand adaptive human-system responses associated with building and sustaining change.
- Clinical Information System Design and Clinical Decision Support to design and evaluate information interfaces that support the safe, productive clinical decision-making and continuity of care from a human factors perspective
