Professor
University of Kansas Medical Center
During my eighteen years at KUMC, I have developed an area of scholarly interest in "Interprofessional Approaches to Safe Older Driving and Medical Education" resulting in grant and scholarly success. My research vision includes communicating safe driving habits to older drivers, reinforcing driving evaluations to health care providers and encouraging transportation alternatives to older drivers and caregivers. I am the Principal Investigator of an interprofessional (IP) driver’s research team at KUMC. In 2017, we received a 6 year grant from the Department of Transportation (DOT), “Assessing and improving the cognitive and visual driving fitness of Commercial Driver’s License (CDL) drivers”. We are now in our fourth year of the multisite, $2.2 million award.
