Research Interests

Dr. Faiola’s research falls under the broad domain of biomedical/health informatics, with two foci: Digital Health Solutions (clinical interventions) and Health Behavior (health disparities). In the former case, study populations (patients/families) include the areas of oncology, critical care, cognitive impairment, and mental health. Dr. Faiola applies an interdisciplinary approach from the fields of health informatics, human factors, social science, human-center...
