Teaching
Since 2009, I have been teaching public health courses both for undergraduate and graduate level, mainly epidemiology, research methods, and Monitoring and evaluation of health programs. I supervised more than seventy MPH thesis work. Since joining LSHTM, I have been running a capacity-building project in operational research, where coaching and mentoring were a big part of the project. As part of another capacity building project, I was supporting postdoc fellows with colleagues, and I have also been taking part in short-term training as needed. I am currently engaged in teaching at distance learning courses and supervising Dr.PH student.
Research
I am always passionate about public health research and as I am trained in Epidemiology, I had an opportunity to take part in many public health research topics. I had kin interest on Non-communicable diseases, and managed a number of research on non-communicable diseases in the past. Mostly on estimating the level of risk factors in population segments, testing tools that help identify certain behaviors and symptoms. Currently, I am working on health system research, on health management information systems, method of analysing routine data to measure health service quality, like effective coverage measurement.
