I have been conducting research in health services, epidemiology, and implementation science at the Hines VA Medical Center, HSR&D Center of Innovation for Complex Chronic Healthcare (CINCCH) for over 19 years. My primary area of research has focused on Veterans with SCI/D, whom are at increased risk for infections and acquiring multidrug resistant organisms (MDROs). Little research had been conducted in this patient population, particularly in the VA which is the single largest source of care for persons with SCI/D in the U.S. My research has made significant impacts on the care of Veterans with SCI/D. This includes developing and disseminating a toolkit on prevention of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) colonization/infection for patients with SCI/D; educating clinicians about the modifiable risk factors of MDROs and impacts on morbidity and mortality in this population, and working collaboratively with clinicians and investigators across the country to develop tools for monitoring and tracking outcomes in Veterans with SCI/D, including the new VHA SCI/D outcomes registry. I have also expanded this work to a broader VA population including leading a QUERI program on antimicrobial resistance. Overall, this portfolio of research has led to 119 publications (45 first/senior author) and national prestige as a recipient of the Presidential Early Career Award for Scientists and Engineers (PECASE) in 2012, awarded by the United States president and White House Office of Science and Technology Policy. In addition, as a doctoral level epidemiologist, my methodological training has allowed me to support the research activities of collaborators across the country. I also conduct mentoring activities for both clinician and non-clinician investigators, fellows, and students and participate in service activities for both VA and non-VA workgroups and committees. This award will be used to: 1) conduct and disseminate research that improves the health care and outcomes of Veterans, with a particular focus on prevention and management of infections and MDROs; 2) support the quantitative training and mentoring of students, fellows, and early career investigators; and 3) provide service to local and national committees to support the mission of VA, the HSR&D program, and CINCCH.

我一直在海因斯研究所进行卫生服务、流行病学和实施科学方面的研究 VA 医疗中心、HSR&D 复杂慢性医疗保健创新中心 (CINCCH) 19 岁以上 年。我的主要研究领域集中于患有 SCI/D 的退伍军人，他们患上 SCI/D 的风险更高 感染和获得多重耐药菌（MDRO）。这方面的研究还很少 患者群体，特别是退伍军人管理局，退伍军人事务部是 SCI/D 患者最大的单一护理来源 我的研究对 SCI/D 退伍军人的护理产生了重大影响。这包括 开发和传播预防耐甲氧西林金黄色葡萄球菌（MRSA）的工具包 SCI/D 患者的定植/感染；对临床医生进行有关可改变的危险因素的教育 多重耐药菌及其对该人群发病率和死亡率的影响，以及与临床医生的合作 和全国各地的调查人员开发工具来监测和跟踪退伍军人的结果 SCI/D，包括新的 VHA SCI/D 结果注册表。我还将这项工作扩展到更广泛的 VA 人口，包括领导关于抗菌素耐药性的 QUERI 计划。总体而言，该研究组合 发表了 119 篇论文（45 篇为第一作者/高级作者），并作为总统奖获得者获得了国家声誉 2012年美国科学家和工程师早期职业奖（PECASE） 总统兼白宫科学技术政策办公室。此外，作为博士级别 流行病学家，我的方法学培训使我能够支持 全国各地的合作者。我还为临床医生和非临床医生开展指导活动 研究人员、研究员和学生，并参与 VA 和非 VA 工作组的服务活动 和委员会。该奖项将用于：1）开展和传播改善健康的研究 退伍军人的护理和结果，特别关注感染的预防和管理 多重耐药菌； 2) 支持学生、研究员和早期职业的定量培训和指导 调查员； 3) 为地方和国家委员会提供服务，以支持 VA 的使命 HSR&D 计划和 CINCCH。
