Summary
- I am a physician-scientist at Washington University, where I completed my psychiatry residency on the NIMH R25 research track and joined the faculty on a NIDA K08 grant. As a pharmacoepidemiologist, I use "big data" to test how clinical trial findings generalize to the real world, especially in populations underrepresented in addictions research. I also direct the PGY2 substance use disorders rotation for the Wash U psychiatry residency.
