ABOUT

Personal Statement
I am a Research Fellow in the Health Inequalities Policy Research (HIP-R) Group within the Department of Public Health, Policy, and Systems. I currently work on the Healthy Urban Places programme, as part of Population Health Improvement UK (PHI-UK).

Previously, I worked in the NCD prevention and food policy research group on a collaborative project with The Health Foundation REAL Centre, exploring projections in major ill health and multimorbidity. My PhD, conducted at the University of Liverpool within the NCD research group, was an epidemiological and microsimulation study exploring socioeconomic inequalities in multimorbidity within England, and the potential for population-level prevention approaches to reduce the future burden of multimorbidity.

 

Research Overview
My particular research interests are in socioeconomic inequalities, multimorbidity, and primary prevention of non-communicable diseases. I am also interested in the use of simulation modelling within public health research.
