Dr. Graham's research interests have evolved from prostate cancer and oncology (2013-2016) to emergency medicine and critical care applications (2021-2022). His earlier work focused on prostate cancer treatment outcomes, brachytherapy techniques, and health disparities in cancer care. More recently, his research has centered on echocardiography applications in emergency settings, particularly examining image quality, acquisition techniques, and integration with CPR protocols. His work demonstrates a strong focus on practical clinical applications that improve patient care in time-sensitive emergency situations.

The publication trends show a clear transition from oncology-focused research to emergency medicine, with his most recent work examining echocardiographic techniques during CPR and brief emergency echocardiography. His research consistently addresses practical clinical challenges with methodologically rigorous approaches.

Dr. Graham has collaborated extensively with researchers including Gaspari, Gleeson, Nordberg, and Nalbandian on emergency medicine projects, while his earlier oncology work involved collaborations with Nguyen, Parekh, Aizer, and others. His research has been cited hundreds of times, with his 2013 paper on marital status and cancer survival receiving 447 citations, indicating significant impact in the field.

As a faculty member in the Emergency Medicine Department with a focus on Toxicology, Dr. Graham contributes to both clinical care and academic advancement in emergency medicine. His dual expertise in emergency procedures and toxicology positions him to address complex patient presentations requiring specialized knowledge in both areas.
