Research Synopsis
I lead the IDEA Lab (Integrating Data, Experience, and Advocacy) at SickKids, which develops strategies to navigate medical uncertainty for children with life-threatening illnesses. I have two current research streams. The first incorporates family and clinician experience with health administrative and electronic health record data to improve the quality of evidence for children with medical complexity from neurologic diagnoses. The other stream uses qualitative and mixed methods to understand how clinicians and families can partner more effectively in making decisions.
