Profile

I am a health economist at the Health Economics and Policy Research Unit (HEPRU) and the Pragmatic Clinical Trials Unit (PCTU) at Centre for Evaluation and Methods (CEM) and a QMUL based methods advisor (health economics) for the NIHR Research Support Service (RSS) Hub delivered by Imperial College London and Partners (Imperial College London, University College London, Queen Mary University of London and King’s College London).

Prior to joining QMUL, I was a postdoctoral fellow in health economics at the Centre for Innovative Drug Development and Therapeutic Trials for Africa (CDT-Africa) where I worked on MRC funded project on understanding the burden, patterns of and risk factors for multimorbidities in low- and middle-income countries and a Wellcome Trust/NIHR funded project on enhancing research uptake and evidence-to-policy translation in health.

In addition to research, I have experience in delivering courses in economics and health economics and programme and partnership management in a higher education context
