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 was elected and now currently serves 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 on the Steering
Committee of Assessing the Symptoms of Cancer using Patient-Reported Outcomes.
