Research & Scholarly Interests

  • HIV Translating Initiatives for Depression into Effective Solutions (HITIDES) – Hybrid Type 3 Implementation-Effectiveness Trial: Developmental Formative Evaluation
    The proposed research will provide information necessary to move forward with HITIDES implementation. Interviewing VHA budget holders will allow our team to tailor the budget impact analysis proposed in Aim 3 of the study to the real-world needs of these decision makers. Specifically, we will elicit which pieces of information are necessary for decision making and develop data collection and modeling strategies as part of the analysis to provide this information. With this information, VHA decision makers, whether at VAMCs, VISNs, or VACO operational offices, can make an informed decision as to whether HITIDES implementation makes sense in their setting and provide clear guidance on what parameters would drive decisions determining financial support for the intervention.
    Role: Principal Investigator
  • Behavioral Health QUERI: Advancing 21st Century Mental Health Care for Veterans
    The goal of this study is to advance mental health care for Veterans by improving care for those with complex behavioral health conditions, including those at highest risk for suicide.
  • Implementing Caring Contacts for Suicide Prevention in Non-Mental Health Settings
    The major goal of this project is to implement and evaluate Caring Contacts, a suicide prevention intervention, in 25 VA emergency departments across 9 VISNs.

  • PRIME Care (PRecision medicine In MEntal health Care)
    The goal of this project is to evaluate the utility of pharmacogenetic (PGx) testing in treating major depressive disorder (MDD).
