About
Dr. Lisa Steele is a pioneering researcher in telemedicine and interprofessional healthcare education, with a focus on leveraging technology to bridge gaps in behavioral health services. Her most cited work, "A Randomized Study Using Telepresence Robots for Behavioral Health in Interprofessional Practice and Education" (2020, 9 citations), emerged during the COVID-19 pandemic, demonstrating how telepresence robots can facilitate remote behavioral health interventions while simultaneously training interprofessional teams. This study, though early in its citation trajectory, represents a critical contribution to the rapidly evolving field of telehealth—offering a scalable model for integrating robotics into mental health care delivery and education. Dr. Steele’s research addresses the urgent need for accessible, technology-driven solutions in behavioral health, particularly during public health crises. Her work has been recognized for its innovative approach to combining clinical practice with interprofessional education, making her a notable figure in the intersection of digital health and collaborative care. As telemedicine continues to expand, Dr. Steele’s findings provide a foundation for future studies on robotic-assisted mental health services and team-based learning.
