Teaching/Clinical Practice

I have been teaching the methodology of synthesis at Queen’s University since 2009. This is a graduate level course in which the students complete a systematic review on a specific clinical topic. I co-supervise the MScHQ HQRS 898 project course in which students pull together all they have leaned throughout the program to do a project. I have been co-supervising this course since the program began.

Clinical Practice

Alzheimer care
Care of individuals in long term care facilities

Research Interests

My main focus is the methodology of synthesis and developing new methodologies to advance the science of synthesis.
