Research Interests
My research has concentrated on the development and evaluation of novel psychosocial interventions for cancer patients and their families, with a focus on bereavement and cancer survivorship. I am also interested in developing efficient and ethical evidence-based models of transitional, preventive psychosocial care to help bereaved family members and post-treatment cancer survivors transition from resource-limited hospital-based care to the community through, for example, screening and workforce/lay support training initiatives. -
