Research Summary
My research focuses on improving trauma surgery, surgical critical care, and neurocritical care through quality improvement, patient safety, and medical education. I investigate early palliative care in neurotrauma, transfusion strategies, and geriatric trauma outcomes. I lead QI initiatives to streamline surgical workflows and enhance interdisciplinary communication. My work also includes developing simulation-based training and competency assessments for surgical trainees.
