Research Interests

I am interested in population studies research related to aging and Alzheimer's Disease related dementia. In particular, I am interested in learning more about how the social determinants of health impact dementia related health outcomes in elderly adults. Furthermore, I am also interested in the population level interventions that can be implemented in order to promote healthy aging.
