Research Area(s)
My research is on the epidemiology of vulnerable and minority populations with a focus on mental disorders. I have led several projects around prescription drug misuse among older adults in Saskatchewan which were funded by CRISM node and SHRF. I have collaborated with researchers at the Centre for Addiction and mental health to study various treatment options for minority populations in Canada. As an epidemiologist my primary work is on analyzing large data sets using various statistical programs.
