Summary
- I am board certified in family medicine and clinical informatics. I enjoy precepting residents in outpatient settings, relief work, and research, especially in primary prevention. I have a long interest in harm reduction as a practical tobacco control approach, and a new interest in the connections between soil health and human health. I am managing a small agricultural controlled trial studying the nutrient content of crops grown in deliberately enriched versus played-out but conventionally fertilised soil, and would like to expand to include human subjects in the near future.
