Bio
Ab Brody, PhD, RN, FAAN, is Mathy Mezey Professor of Geriatric Nursing, associate director of Hartford Institute for Geriatric Nursing, and founder of Aliviado. He is passionate about mentoring and developing the nursing and scientific workforce, leads the Hospice and Palliative Nurses Association Leadership Development Program, is enrichment program director of NYU Meyer’s P20 Exploratory Center for Precision Health in Diverse Populations (P20NR018075), and maintains an active practice on the Geriatric and Palliative Consult Services at NYU Langone Health. Dr. Brody’s work focuses on the intersection of geriatrics, palliative care, and equity, seeking to improve quality of care for older adults with serious illness. He is principal investigator for two NIH-funded large-scale pragmatic clinical trials: one focusing on improving care quality, quality of life, and healthcare utilization for people living with dementia in home health (R01AG056610) through Aliviado Dementia Care for Home Health; another, the HAS-QOL trial (R61AG061904), focuses on implementing Aliviado Dementia Care for Hospice, with a primary outcome of reducing inappropriate antipsychotic use that can lead to reduced function and quality of life.
