I study how features of social organization influence the way knowledge informs practice, and the effects of these processes on important organizational and individual outcomes.
My research interests are in the areas of health and medicine; occupations, organizations, and work; the sociology of knowledge; language; the internet; and qualitative methods. Menchik, D., and D.
