Research Abstract

Throughout my academic experiences, I have developed a wide range of methods for analyzing and facilitating medical decision processes, focusing in the area of breast cancer. These include decision models for individual patients, physicians, and policy makers. My principle research efforts have included 1) investigations of and decision support for patient decision making in breast cancer prevention, 2) evaluation of breast cancer prevention, screening, and treatment strategies, and 3) the development of decision quality metrics.
