My research focuses on improving care for burn and trauma patients in both the United States and globally. I seek to improve understanding of the impact of burn injury in resource- limited settings through sound epidemiological studies. In addition, I plan to use implementation science to study the efficacy and application of burn care in the acute and rehabilitation setting
