She completed her Master of Clinical Epidemiology at the Harvard School of Public Health, which focused on developing skills and expertise in health services research and cohort studies. The major questions she has pursued involve rheumatoid arthritis (RA) epidemiology, evaluating long-term RA outcomes such as remission and serious adverse events, and a special expertise in reproductive outcomes for women with rheumatic conditions. She is the 2015 recipient of the the Arthritis Society Clinician Investigator Award and hopes to enhance our knowledge about multi morbidity in RA by examining the prevalence/incidence of depression and anxiety, cardiovascular disease and metabolic syndrome using administrative health data.
