Bryce Reeve
Bryce B. Reeve, PhD, is a Psychometrician and Program Director in the
Outcomes Research Branch of the Applied Research Program, where he has worked
since 2000. At NCI, he directs an active program to enhance the use of
patient-reported outcomes (PROs, including health-related quality of life
(HRQOL) and patient experiences with health care) in clinical research and
practice to improve the quality of care for both pediatric and adult cancer
patients. With a degree in quantitative psychology from the University of North
Carolina at Chapel Hill, his work at NCI is focused on enhancing PRO measures
with innovative psychometric methodologies and integrating PRO data in cancer
research and health care delivery to inform decision-making.
Dr. Reeve serves as a NIH Science Officer on the Patient-Reported Outcomes
Measurement Information System (PROMIS) Network. The PROMIS Network is in
the process of building a public domain Web-based resource to dynamically
administer, collect, and report data on key HRQOL domains relevant to a variety
of chronic diseases. In 2004, he organized an international conference on
applying item response theory and computerized-adaptive testing methodology to
enhance HRQOL assessment. In September 2006, he organized an NCI-sponsored
conference examining the value and challenges of integrating HRQOL in cancer
clinical trials.
Dr. Reeve recently served in an elected position on the Board of Directors of
the International Society for Quality of Life Research (ISOQOL). He also serves
on NCI's Symptom Management and Health-Related Quality of Life Steering
Committee and the Steering Committee of Assessing the Symptoms of Cancer using
Patient-Reported Outcomes. He serves as a NCI Liaison on the Critical Path
Institute's PRO Consortium Oncology Scoping Group, and the European Organization
for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) group on Patient Reported Outcomes
and Behavioral Evidence.
