Research
I study the body's response to traumatic injury and prehospital resuscitation. In other words, who gets sick following trauma, and why? How can we adapt patient care to improve outcomes? To this end, we leverage prehospital ground and helicopter information, continuous waveform measurements, clinical data, multi-omics approaches, and markers of immune function and tissue damage. My most recent publications are listed on
Google Scholar.
Selected Publications:
Association of prehospital plasma with survival in patients with TBI
