Her research program centers on obstetric interventions to improve breastfeeding success, particularly through antenatal breast milk expression techniques, while also investigating rare postpartum complications like ectopic breast tissue manifestations. Current projects include randomized controlled trials evaluating electric breast pump efficacy and clinical studies on vulvar pathology resolution patterns. Her methodology emphasizes patient-centered outcomes in underserved communities.

Recent publications demonstrate consistent focus on lactation support systems and postpartum complication management, with methodological strengths in randomized trial design and case-based clinical analysis. The 2023 BABE trial represents a significant contribution to evidence-based breastfeeding protocols.

As Principal Investigator, Dr. Mason manages multiple state-funded residency training initiatives including the Loma Linda-Empire Consortium for Healthcare Education (2024-2027) and Song Brown Grants for OB/GYN Primary Care Residency Training. These projects focus on expanding healthcare access in California's Inland Empire region through structured clinical education programs.

She actively contributes to the OB/GYN Residency Program curriculum development and oversees clinical rotations for residents specializing in maternal-fetal medicine and lactation support services.
