Research Professor, Department of Kinesiology, School of Public Health
My interests have focused on approaches to minimizing consequences of diabetes and related cardiovascular complications through lifestyle modification and improved delivery of community health services. Previous projects have examined:
Developing culturally sensitive approaches to diet modification in Latino communities;
Improving post-operative complications in cardiac surgery patients with diabetes;
Examining ways to combine medications with exercise;
Other interdisciplinary collaborations have included mathematical modeling of endocrine (e.g., thyroid) systems.
Current efforts emphasize the need for developing a well-trained public health workforce. One group of great interest is “front-line” health care workers who have the potential to greatly improve the delivery of care to people at risk for or those living with diabetes. Their importance in monitoring and reinforcing healthcare messages and strategies, through systems such as the patient centered medical home, is a new area of investigation.
