The field of disaster medicine, with a particular focus on healthcare management and resilience, examines how individuals, teams, and organizations within healthcare systems can maintain functionality, make decisions, and adapt under complex, uncertain, and rapidly changing conditions. A central area of interest is how medical incident command systems operate in practice, particularly under high workload and in multi-agency collaboration.
The research also addresses how education, training, and exercises can be developed to strengthen resilience, learning, and preparedness in disaster medicine. The overall aim is to contribute to more robust and adaptive healthcare leadership in crises and disasters.
My research focuses on resilience in medical incident command during major incidents. In particular, it examines how medical incident command can maintain operational capability, adapt to changing conditions, and make effective decisions under uncertainty and high workload. My research also explores how education and training can strengthen the ability of individuals and organizations to collaborate, learn, and sustain performance in complex and dynamic environments.
