Her research focuses on dietary intake and risk of chronic disease, with an emphasis on health disparities. She is the PI of the Boston Puerto Rican Health Study, a cohort study, to examine the roles of diet in relation to chronic conditions including heart disease, cognitive decline, and bone health.
