研究兴趣
My research focuses on the psychosocial issues that affect patients with diabetes and 高危人群 for diabetes. I have developed and tested effective and practical interventions for patients with diabetes, 高危人群, 以及他们的伴侣, to help them achieve better physical health (e.g., control of blood sugar, weight) and quality of life. I have also studied the relationship between depression/anxiety and diabetes outcomes. My current NIH-funded project follows young adults with type 2 diabetes to better understand factors that affect medication adherence and healthcare usage, to design more effective behavioral interventions for this vulnerable group.

- TODAY2 -i计算研究. 鲁斯·温斯托克,医学博士/博士. The TODAY (Treatment Options for Adolescents and Youth with type 2 Diabetes), Study was a multi-site (N=15) trial of treatment alternatives for youth who have type 2 diabetes, to identify whether medications alone, or in combination with an intensive lifestyle intervention to promote weight loss, is more effective at managing the youth’s diabetes. That study evolved into the TODAY2 study, an observational study of these youth as they move into adulthood. Our furrent NIH-funded TODAY2:i计算研究 is ancillary to TODAY2 and provides the opportunity to follow these now young adults on psychosocial factors, specifically to identify factors that predict medication adherence and healthcare usage, as well as psychosocial factors that predict glycemic control and other diabetes-related outcomes.
