We run a course in health econometrics two times per year usually April and October.  This course will serve as an introduction to some of the concepts and principles in the economics of health and health care. It will provide an in-depth understanding of the tools usually used by health economists to address issues of health policy.

Research Interests

My research focuses on health economics, primary care, and labour markets in healthcare. I am particularly interested in understanding how healthcare workforce policies, service delivery, and population health interact to influence health outcomes and inequalities.

Areas of Expertise

• GP Workforce and Primary Care

• Health Economics

• Health Services Research and Public Health

• Labour Economics

• Medical Education

• Applied Microeconometrics

• Big Data Analytics

• Electronic Health Records and Linked Data (ORCHID, CPRD, and QResearch)

Current Research Themes

My current research examines several important challenges facing healthcare systems:

• GP workforce supply, retention, and productivity

• Additional Roles Reimbursement Scheme (ARRS) in primary care

• Multimorbidity and health inequalities

• Primary care workload and service delivery

• Immigration and population health

• Maternal mental health

• Child health outcomes

• Healthcare system resilience and emergency care performance

Opportunities for Students

I welcome enquiries from motivated Master's and PhD students interested in health economics, primary care research, labour economics, applied econometrics, and the analysis of large-scale healthcare datasets.

Students joining my group have opportunities to work with nationally representative healthcare data, contribute to policy-relevant research, and collaborate with leading academic and healthcare organisations.

If you are interested in supervision or potential research opportunities, please contact me by email with a brief description of your research interests and your CV.
