Research
My research focus is in medical ethics education and curricular design, creating novel and effective approaches to integrating ethics and compassionate care into medical school and residency curricula. From the first-in-the-nation resident Team-Based Learning Bioethics curricula, to medical student required and elective courses that focus on vulnerable populations, I see effective education as a cornerstone for a more compassionate medicine tethered to the immutable virtues of the practicing physician.

Research
My research focus is in medical ethics education and curricular design, creating novel and effective approaches to integrating ethics and compassionate care into medical school and residency curricula. From the first-in-the-nation resident Team-Based Learning Bioethics curricula, to medical student required and elective courses that focus on vulnerable populations, I see effective education as a cornerstone for a more compassionate medicine tethered to the immutable virtues of the practicing physician.
