Description of Research Expertise

At University of Pennsylvania I work as a primary care provider, an educator for students and residents, and serve as the Medical Director of Population Health for Penn Medicine.

My area of expertise is population health. My work focuses on leveraging local quality improvement initiatives, partnership with researchers and insurers, and coordination with multidisciplinary groups and multispecialty providers in developing, studying, and implementing scalable sustainable solutions broadly across health systems.

Current work includes collaboration with researchers including the Population Health Lab, the Penn Center for Innovation and Transformation, Penn Pathways, and operational teams including Informaticists to implement evidence-based strategies to improve cancer screening, chronic disease control, and reduce utilization at scale aimed to both narrow existing disparities and improve performance in value-based contracts.
