RESEARCH
In the area of public health, my research has focused mainly on issues of the care management of older adults. I am involved in the qualitative analysis of data on self-care of older adults with chronic illness. Other research interests include the qualitative assessment of risks and benefits of childhood immunization and barriers to adult immunization. Outside the public health domain I have done ethnographic research on topics such as social stratification, kinship and ritual kinship, and religion in rural and urban central Mexico.
