Research

  • Professor & Research Chair in Aging and Quality of Life, Faculty of Nursing, College of Health Sciences. 
  • Director, Integrated Cardiovascular Exercise Physiology and Rehabilitation (iCARE) Laboratory.
  • My internationally recognized research program examines the biological mechanisms underpinning the decline in cardiovascular health and fitness across the healthy aging and heart failure continuum, and the role of lifestyle interventions to improve cardiac, peripheral vascular, and skeletal muscle function, physical function and quality of life. A second research area is in the cardiooncology field with specific focus on the role of exercise training to prevent cardiovascular and skeletal muscle deconditioning across the breast cancer survivorship continuum. A final research focus is in sport cardiology and cardiac mechanics in athletes. Director,

Courses

NURS 311 - Evidence Informed Nursing Practice

The course provides a hands on approach to evidence-informed nursing practice. This includes formulating clinical questions, systematic searching of electronic databases, reading, interpreting and critically appraising health research. Emphasis is on developing thinking and information literacy skills necessary to be an astute research consumer, and using evidence to inform clinical decision making. Note: Available only to nursing students in the Collaborative/Honors Program, After Degree/After Degree Honors Program or RPN-BScN Program. Prerequisite for Collaborative/Honors Program students: NURS 211 (or NURS 341). Credit may be obtained for only one of NURS 311 or 301.
