My main research interests are in the areas of health economics and strategies to improve clinical reasoning skills among medical trainees. I am designing a study comparing strategies that improve cost consciousness among medical residents. I am also partnering with the School Management in using Information Technology to improve the ‘test ordering’ behavior by residents in the ambulatory care clinic. My other interests include techniques to improve clinical reasoning among students and residents.
