What brought you to CDTRP\u2019s Patient, Family, and Donor Research Platform?<\/strong><\/h6>\n
\n

What brought me to join CDTRP is the impact of organ transplantation on my family as well as the desire to help improve organ transplantation in general and the life of recipients.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

What are your areas of research interest and experience in patient research?<\/strong><\/h6>\n
\n

I would like to be involved in research regarding the importance of various aspects of lifestyle post-transplant.\u00a0 Both from a patient perspective and a health care system perspective.\u00a0 I don\u2019t have experience working directly with transplant recipients, but I am a Level 2 Social Return on Investment Practitioner with education and experience in outcome evaluation.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

What new areas of interest do you want to explore, and which skills would you like to build on?<\/strong><\/h6>\n
\n

I am interested in any areas that my knowledge and experience might benefit.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Tell us a fun fact about yourself!<\/strong><\/h6>\n
