Research summary
AI-generated

Nicholas A. Rattray studies how health care programs are put into practice and improved within real-world systems, with a strong focus on U.S. military veterans. His work covers implementation science (getting proven interventions into routine care), care coordination for stroke and sleep apnea patients, veterans' reintegration after service, and improving health care access in rural areas through telehealth. Many of his studies use qualitative and mixed-methods approaches to understand patient, caregiver, and provider experiences.

Collaborators per year
Distinct co-authors at Indiana University each year — a rough indication of whether the group around this researcher has been growing or contracting. An estimate from co-authorship, not a roster: collaborators are not necessarily lab members, and recent years can be under-counted while indexing catches up.
