As a member of Research & Education Services I work with the Reference Team to supply accurate, targeted, efficient, and timely literature searches to our clients. This includes searches received via our online request form, live chat, in person, over the phone, or as a result of one-on-one consultation or office visits with clients. 

As the liaison to Critical Care Medicine and the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) at MSK, I provide embedded services and support to clinicians in the ICU, including attending morning rounds, weekly reports, and fellow education.
