Disability & Exclusion in Healthcare
Our interdisciplinary research team focuses on systematic and interpersonal barriers in healthcare intersect to impact the measurement of health and patient experience when navigating the health system. We use our expertise in qualitative and quantitative practices to better represent the diverse populations treated in the health system. Research produced by the team contributes to active debates on developing methodological, care, and intervention tools which address the needs of populations experiencing exclusion due to a myriad of factors often underdiscussed in the health sciences.
Ongoing Projects
