Diana continues to be active in evidence-based design research. During medical school she completed a qualitative study on Palliative Care Unit Design at Bridgepoint Hospital in Toronto, Canada. This paper appeared in the April 2008 issue of the World Health Design Journal, published by The International Academy for Design and Health (IADH).
Diana was also awarded one of the 2003-2004 AIA/AHA Graduate Fellowships in Health Facility Planning and Design for her master’s thesis project in architecture.
Diana attended Healthcare Design ’08 in Washington, D.C., and the IADH 6th World Congress and Exhibition in Singapore in June 2009. Her ongoing Tradewell project is exploring the culture of medical rounds, with the intention of making recommendations on space design to accommodate the current shift towards interdisciplinary rounding practices.
