Abraham (Ab) Brody, PhD, RN, FAAN is associate director of the Hartford Institute for Geriatric Nursing (HIGN) and Professor of Nursing and Medicine at NYU Meyers College of Nursing. He is also the founder of Aliviado Health and the Pilot Core Lead of the NIA IMPACT Collaboratory. His work focuses on the intersection of geriatrics, palliative care, quality, and equity. The primary goal of his research, clinical, and policy pursuits is to improve the quality of care for older adults with serious illness wherever they reside. His primary mode for doing so is through the development, testing, and dissemination of real-word, technology, and informatics supported quality improvement interventions. He is currently the principal investigator of two NIH-funded large-scale pragmatic clinical trials to improve the quality of care and quality of life for persons living with dementia and their caregivers in the community and a co-investigator on several other pragmatic trials and health services research projects in geriatrics and palliative care.
As pilot core lead of the NIA IMPACT Collaboratory, he is responsible for heading the pilot program, which, in collaboration with the National Institute on Aging, reviews and awards funds to help investigators prepare for large-scale pragmatic clinical trials for persons living with dementia and their caregivers. He also serves on the Steering Committee of the NINR Funded Palliative Care Research Cooperative
In addition to his research and national leadership responsibilities, Ab is passionate about mentoring and developing a diverse nursing and scientific workforce. To this end, he has developed mentoring and leadership programs and mentors faculty, post- doctoral scholars, and PhD students across multiple disciplines and institutions. He also maintains an active practice in the Geriatric and Palliative Consult Services at NYU Langone Health.
