Her efforts are critically important to enhance optimal use of research evidence in healthcare settings, by supporting implementation of new practices, as well as reduce the use of existing ones that may add little value or are harmful.

Her research contributions are rapidly moving the boundaries of our knowledge of organizational context in health care, an important topic for shaping policies and the research agenda on healthcare services across the country and around the globe.
