Jump to: Affiliations Publications

I joined the EHR group in 2022 as a research fellow to work on OpenSAFELY projects, investigating healthcare disruption related to the pandemic and repurposing of drugs to treat COVID-19. I previously worked at the University of Manchester where I mainly used CPRD data in studies in the area of rheumatic diseases. While working in Manchester I completed my PhD by publication, this included 7 studies with the theme of using digital data to investigate the management of rheumatoid arthritis.
