Professional Interests
Prof. Khayal is a highly interdisciplinary translational researcher focused on improving chronic disease health outcomes. Her current work addresses the reality of the multi-level interconnected systems we live in. She leads the Sustainable Health Lab focused on improving chronic care delivery using model-based systems engineering and data science to address health services research problems of implementation, quality measurement, improvement, health equity, and understanding organizational behavior. Her latest American Cancer Society (ACS) Health Equity and Access to Care Research Scholar Award addresses the siloed scientific approach to healthcare disparities to provide hospitals with actionable information and process tools to tailor bespoke solutions that reduce healthcare disparities in the context of local resources.
