Research interests are primarily in the epidemiology of degenerative neurological disorders with a primary focus on multiple sclerosis, dementia, and cerebrovascular disease. Recently, studies have also focused on the use of services by seniors and those with neurodegenerative diseases. In addition to substantive research, a program of methodologic research aimed at improving design, measurement and statistical analyses of epidemiologic studies has been maintained.Neurepidemiology, Multiple sclerosis, Alzheimer’s disease, biostatistics, health services, dementia, geriatrics, population research, neurology, neurodegenerative diseases
