My research investigates the impact of identity (especially gender, race, and gender identity) on the ways that individuals interact within academic and medical contexts, as well as the long-term impact of these differences on interaction style. I am particularly well known for my work on cultural and identity taxation, or the extra labor that folks from marginalized groups are expected to take on in the workplace (in academic medicine, this is often called "the minority tax"). I recently published a special issue on this topic with Tiffany Joseph.
In health professions education contexts, my research investigates hidden, informal, and formal curricula related to emotions and communication. I was also named the inaugural Dr. Georges Bordage Medical Education Faculty Scholar in order to study issues related to professional socialization of medical students.
Finally, I have worked to highlight and strengthen the linkages between the fields of sociology and health professions education. My work in this area includes several review articles on the topic and a special issue in Social Science & Medicine Qualitative Research in Health with the Executive Board Members of the Sociology of Health Professions Education Collaborative.
