Professional Interests

Main professional interests include child and adolescent psychopharmacology, community psychiatry, pharmacoepidemiology, mental health services research, and outcomes and effectiveness evaluations. The primary focus of my research is to evaluate access to and delivery of evidence-based psychopharmacologic treatments in community practice.  The goal is to develop measures to assess the effectiveness and outcomes of mental health treatments for children and adolescents as they are delivered in the community, and ultimately to improve the quality of care.
