Research focuses on the ethics <strong>of</strong> screening — when does the risk outweigh the benefit? I am also<br />
interested in the “hidden curriculum” in medical education (e.g., what are students learning by example<br />
from attendings and <strong>residents</strong>?). I would be happy to work with <strong>residents</strong> on projects involving ethical<br />
issues in caring <strong>for</strong> older populations, including dementiaism and ageism.<br />

My major areas <strong>of</strong> interest include pain and pain management in later life as well as ways to improve<br />
delivery <strong>of</strong> palliative care services in both outpatient and inpatient settings. In addition, I have an interest<br />
in the role <strong>of</strong> community-based participatory <strong>research</strong> as a tool to improve health and health outcomes at<br />
the community level. I direct an NIH-funded center (<strong>Cornell</strong>-Columbia Translational Research Institute<br />
on Pain in Later Life) that supports translational <strong>research</strong> ef<strong>for</strong>ts on the topic <strong>of</strong> pain and pain<br />
management. Our center has numerous projects, providing <strong>opportunities</strong> <strong>for</strong> <strong>residents</strong> to participate in<br />
clinical <strong>research</strong> studies. Topics include: (1) understanding the role <strong>of</strong> mobile health technologies in the<br />
management <strong>of</strong> pain; (2) translating evidence-based pain programs <strong>for</strong> use in non-clinical settings; (3)<br />
addressing barriers to the use <strong>of</strong> opioid medications as a treatment <strong>for</strong> chronic non-cancer pain in older<br />
adults; (4) working with community agencies serving older adults in New York City as a means <strong>of</strong><br />
extending the reach <strong>of</strong> pain management programs and developing new strategies to deliver palliative care<br />
interventions to vulnerable patient populations.<br />
