I have got a first degree in Political Science and Literature from the University of Bonn and spent several years working as a senior media officer in an international development organisation. I then made a career change into academia after graduating from LSE with an MSc in Health, Population and Society. I have joined LSHTM in 2005. My interests are in health policy, political decision-making, health system comparisons and the relationship between evidence and policy.
Affiliation
Teaching
I am a tutor on the MSc Health Policy, Planning and Finance and a seminar leader on the Health Policy, Process and Power module. I also teach on Financing Healthcare at the LSE.
Research
I am currently involved in two projects that examine the relationship between evidence and policy. The first project aims to better understand the role of policy pilots and evaluations in policy-making in England and to make recommendations on how both can be used more effectively. The second project aims to improve the use of evidence in health policy by applying insights from political science to the analysis of a larger set of countries (Getting Research into Policy, GRIP). I was previously involved in a programme funded by the Department of Health that provides international healthcare comparisons as an 'on-call' service to the Department to inform policy-making. /p>
