RESEARCH INTERESTS

I am interested in the analysis of large electronic health records databases. I have mostly worked with the Clinical Practice Research Datalink (CPRD) and the Oxford-Royal College of General Practitioners Clinical Informatics Digital Hub (ORCHID), both are primary care databases of English patients.

I have also expertise in meta-analysis methods. I am most interested in advanced methods such as network meta-analysis. 

Most of my work has been on the clinical areas of cardiovascular disease, renal disease, cancer, and multimorbidity. Previously I worked in the areas of aging research, clinical, nutritional and genetic epidemiology.

Some of my present and past collaborations include: 

• the NIHR Applied Research Collaboration (ARC) Oxford and Thames Valley Applied Digital Health theme 
• the OxValve and NewKi cohort studies funded by the NIHR Oxford Biomedical Research Group (BRC)  
  
• the Cochrane Tobacco Addiction Group

TEACHING

I have recently joined the teaching team of the MSc in Applied Digital Health.

In the past I taught medical statistics to undergraduate Medicine Pre-Clinical year 2 students, and postgraduate students in the MSc in Evidence-Based Health Care and MSc in Medical Statistics.

SUPERVISING

I supervise or have supervised postgraduate students on the MSc in Evidence-Based Health Care and MSc in Medical Statistics, and undergraduate students on the Medicine Pre-Clinical Final Honours School (FHS) year from the University of Oxford. I am also keen and have experience on advising MSc and PhD students in other programs and from other universities.
