Summary
Expertise
Shared Decision Making - designing, testing, and implementing tools and techniques for delivering evidence-based medicine in partnership with patient preferences to improve care outcomes for individuals, families, and care teams.
Community-Based Participatory Research - centered around nine principles of shared leadership, power, decision making, and agenda setting, CBPR is an approach to working with communities to craft, implement, and evaluate programs or strategies to improve the quality of life of communities. Based on Paulo Friere’s framing of education as activism, CBPR seeks to raise the voices of people who are often marginalized or worse. Doing this work requires deep commitment and sensitivity to a process of working in close collaboration with members of the community who have little awareness or interest in research or academic hierarchies, but have deep commitment to their communities.
