Rachel Pechey
Epidemiologist
My research interests include exploring the effectiveness of different interventions that alter aspects of the physical micro-environment ('choice architecture') to improve the healthiness and sustainability of diets. I am interested in understanding the mechanisms underlying the impact of such interventions, and their potential impact on health inequalities.
