Dr. Gruber-Baldini's research interests are in gerontology, cognitive functioning, and the impact of chronic conditions on functioning. She has worked on projects examining functioning in both community-dwelling and institutionalized elderly. Her research has examined the impact of chronic disease conditions on physical and cognitive outcomes. She has worked as a project director and analyst/statistician for studies on nursing home residents with dementia (including the University of Maryland Long-Term Care Project), as a research analyst for The Baltimore Hip Studies, and as lead analyst for the Collaborative Studies of Long-term Care. She is currently PI of an ancillary study funded by the NHLBI to look at delirium outcomes after a transfusion randomized clinial trial. She was awarded a Task Order to study treatment and outcomes of dementia by AHRQ as part of the DEcIDE (Developing Evidence to Inform Decisions about Effectiveness) Network. She is currently working on issues related to health outcomes of nursing home residents with dementia and examining treatment of residents with dementia in residential care/assisted living facilities. She is also working on studies of cognitive impairment after hip fracture, and interventions for people with dementia after hip fracture.

Other Expertise

Dr. Gruber-Baldini serves as the webmaster for the Department of Epidemiology and Preventive Medicine: http://medschool.umaryland.edu/departments/epidemiology/

She has extensive experience in data analyses using SAS, STATA, and SPSS.

Dr. Gruber-Baldini has also worked on a number of longitudinal studies, including the Seattle Longitudinal Study, the Baltimore Longitudinal Study of Aging, the Baltimore Hip Studies, the University of Maryland Long-term Care Studies, and the Collaborative Studies of Long-term Care.

Future Research

Dr. Gruber-Baldini is interested in expanding her research on cognition and hip fracture to examine the relationship between cognitive functioning and physiologic/metabolic changes after hip fracture.

She is also interested in cognition in male hip fracture patients and in the role of cognition in rehabilitation outcomes.
