Biography
Dr. Hisle-Gorman began her career as a social worker working in neighborhood development efforts to support and strengthen families to prevent family violence and overcome hardship. However a move to a military town with her active duty military husband, and her work with child protection in military families re-focused her interest to working with military families. Since completing her Ph.D. she has taught and worked in community development, but moved to USUHS to better explore the effects of military life on children. Her research interests are focused the impact of past military deployment on military children, effects of family violence on pediatric health and mental health, and healthcare usage trends in military pediatrics. However she has also worked on projects examining autism in children, indicators of immunization completion, neonatal health, and the effects of medications on children. Dr. Hisle-Gorman has significant experience working with the Military Health system Data Repository and conducting retrospective research studies on military children using the MDR. Dr. Hisle-Gorman most enjoys mentoring medical students and residents on research projects teaching them the research process on an individual basis.
