Research

Research Summary

My research focuses on identifying risk factors, prevention strategies, and treatments for late-life disability related to geriatric syndromes (i.e., urinary incontinence, frailty, falls, functional decline, and cognitive impairment) in frail older people. My research methods focus on quantitative analysis using longitudinal modeling, secondary dataset analyses, systematic literature reviews, and clinical trials.

  • Preventing excess disability and frailty in older adults
  • Preventing and managing urinary incontinence in older adults
  • Complex interventions for managing geriatric syndromes in older adults
