    Research Description
    My primary research focuses women's health, particularly chronic pelvic pain. I like to understand the experience of women suffering from chronic pelvic pain to identify targeted interventions to improve the individuals' quality of life and decrease their pain experience. Current projects include: Phenotyping the pain of women with pelvic congestion syndrome and a systematic review of non-surgical/non-pharmacological interventions for women with chronic pelvic pain.

Now that UR-Linked has helped you to identify a faculty member whose interests align with your interests, be sure to review the essential steps in contacting a potential faculty mentor.

The Director of Undergraduate Research, Dr. Jane Greer., can provide you with further guidance about finding and connecting with faculty mentors at UMKC.

Once you have reviewed the essential steps to prepare for connecting with a potential faculty mentor, you can use the "Contact Details" for this project to connect with the faculty member and to begin a conversation about how you might work with that him or her.
