Her research projects include evaluating pelvic floor muscle training programs for older women, funded by the Fonds de recherche du Québec - Santé (FRQS). Key areas of investigation involve vulvo-vaginal atrophy (AVV), sexual health, and non-pharmacological treatments for menopause-related symptoms. She collaborates with researchers like Chantal Dumoulin on clinical trials addressing pelvic floor rehabilitation.
Research grants include a 2020-2022 FRQS-funded project on group-based pelvic floor training for urinary incontinence, and a 2015-2016 study on exercise impacts on vulvo-vaginal atrophy symptoms. Her work emphasizes patient-centered, low-cost interventions with minimal side effects.
