My research focuses on: 1) describing underlying neurocognitive mechanisms involved in cancer and other chronic diseases (e.g., type 2 diabetes)-related neurocognitive impairments (CRCI); 2) developing reliable methods to facilitate diagnosis, optimal patient care, and successful neurocognitive rehabilitation for patients and survivors; 3) describing brain plasticity and changes that accompany neurocognitive recovery in the context of cancer, other chronic diseases and their treatments; and 4) developing and testing behavioral and pharmacological interventions to treat CRCI across the cancer care continuum.  Other research interests include health care inequities, and measurement development and psychometric validation.My research focuses on: 1) describing underlying neurocognitive mechanisms involved in cancer and other chronic diseases (e.g., type 2 diabetes)-related neurocognitive impairments (CRCI); 2) developing reliable methods to facilitate diagnosis, optimal patient care, and successful neurocognitive rehabilitation for patients and survivors; 3) describing brain plasticity and changes that accompany neurocognitive recovery in the context of cancer, other chronic diseases and their treatments; and 4) developing and testing behavioral and pharmacological interventions to treat CRCI across the cancer care continuum.  Other research interests include health care inequities, and measurement development and psychometric validation.
