Research Interests:

Dr. Eisman focuses on improving the implementation of evidence-based practices to benefit adolescent well-being, particularly within school settings. Her research centers on making it easier for schools and community partners to deliver high-quality, equitable prevention and early intervention programs. By combining implementation science with health economics, she empowers providers, leaders, and organizations to effectively implement programs addressing substance use and mental health as well as physical activity, intellectual and developmental disabilities, and cardiovascular disease. Community engagement is a cornerstone of her research program, fostering collaborations with implementation practitioners, educators, state agencies, community organizations, and other key partners.
