Her major research areas are cancer health disparity, cancer/health literacy, and family violence among underserved minority populations, with particular attention to immigrants and refugees. Using information communication technology (ICT), and a community-based participatory research (CBPR) approach, she is developing and testing intervention programs to promote cancer screening behavior and to increase health and cancer literacy. Her integration of ICT and existing health behavior theories into intervention strategies provides an opportunity to investigate ICT’s potential to render positive behavior change in typically underserved and difficult-to-reach minority groups.
