Dr. Joyce is an Affiliate Research Scientist at the Center for Injury Research and Prevention at Children's Hospital of Philadelphia and Assistant Professor in the Department of Epidemiology, member of the Center for Gerontology and Health Care Research (CGHCR), and co-founder of the Transportation and Health Initiative at the Brown University School of Public Health with Dr. Andrew Zullo. She frequently collaborates with researchers across departments, including Health Services Research and Economics. As a result, Dr. Joyce has developed an interdisciplinary research agenda that aims to place traditional clinical epidemiological research within the context of current health policy.

Her current research interests include strategies for improving the safe-mobility of older adults and advancing methods for studying causes of motor vehicle crashes, particularly among older adults with dementia or other cognitive impairment. In addition, she is interested in advancing methods for generalizing findings from cluster randomized trials to a new target populations, with a focus on applications for nursing home research.
