My work investigates how we can support putting more of what we know from evidence, practice-based and lived experiences into what we do in making healthcare decisions as patients, families/carers, healthcare providers and decision-makers.

Knowledge Translation
Knowledge translation in health care, applying education and knowledge translation theory and practice in designing strategies to close the ‘know-do’ gap. My work includes:
• The co-design of education strategies and knowledge tools/products with knowledge users
• Investigating barriers and enablers to evidence-informed practice to inform strategies to encourage use of evidence in practice
• Application of technologies to support physical and therapeutic activity
• Processes of care and support for shared decision-making between healthcare professionals and patientsGrantsL LI, D LACAILLE, L FEEHAN, T LUI-AMBROSE, C SHAW, C BACKMAN, K MILLER, R PETRELLA. Empowering active self-management of arthritis

Research Roundup: January 2022
This month’s Research Roundup covers how increasing parent-child proximity in the first days of life can improve toddler behaviour later on, what lean body mass can tell us about the health of pediatric kidney transplant recipients, insights into the barriers to knowledge translation in Canadian pediatric health-care centres, and an evaluation of the effectiveness of saline gargle COVID-19 tests.
