Her research focuses on institutional pressures and dynamics in implementing government services, with a particular interest in the delivery of services to vulnerable populations, and the use of evidence in public decision-making. Her goal is to do research that aids government organizations to find their optimal system design given their political, policy, regulatory, and financial constraints. To date, Dr. Isett has been the PI or co-PI on grants totaling over $14m. She has been recognized by the Academy of Management for excellence in research and participated in the John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation's Mental Health Policy Research Network (2002 – 2008). In 2020 she was elected as a Fellow of the National Academy of Public Administration. Isett has worked with elected officials and policymakers at all levels of government on a variety of issues. Prior to joining the Biden School, Dr. Isett was on faculty at Georgia Tech, Columbia University, and Texas A&M, and she completed a NIMH sponsored post doc at UNC-Chapel Hill's Sheps Center for Health Services Research.<br></p></div> | <div class="ExternalClassC7225C2C69E5455DA4AA9E0CEF9A17C1"><p><strong></strong></p><p>ORCID:0000-0002-7584-0181</p><p><strong>Isett, K.R.</strong> and D.
