I teach the basics <strong>of</strong> <strong>research</strong> methodology to all primary care <strong>residents</strong> and co-mentor their scholarly<br />

projects. My <strong>research</strong> interest is focused on the use <strong>of</strong> community-based participatory <strong>research</strong> in<br />

addressing healthcare disparities among ethnic minority communities. Currently, I am a co-investigator<br />

on two NIH-funded studies: SCALE (Small Changes and Lasting Effects) and CEDREC (The<br />

Comprehensive Center <strong>of</strong> Excellence in Disparities Research and Community Engagement). Through<br />

CEDREC I work on partnering <strong>residents</strong> interested in disparities <strong>research</strong> with one <strong>of</strong> our investigational<br />

teams.<br />
