I am a doctor of statistics and clinical trialist designing and leading on randomised controlled trials and observational studies in the field of tuberculosis (TB) and HIV.

Teaching
I co-organise the distance learning module EPM304 (Advanced Statistical Methods in Epidemiology). I also teach on the in-house courses Statistics for Epidemiology and Population Health (STEPH), Statistical Methods in Epidemiology (SME) and Advanced Statistical Methods in Epidemiology (ASME).
I tutor students on the MSc Epidemiology and MSc Medical Statistics intensive courses, as well as support distance learning students with their summer projects.
Research
I am a member of the International Statistics & Epidemiology Group (ISEG) and have links with the Electronic Health Records (EHR) group. My research focuses on the design, implementation, and analysis of randomised controlled trials, along with observational analysis of electronic health records.
My main research interest is the field of TB and HIV. I am the lead statistician on a trial assessing short-course high-dose rifampicin regimens for TB, and another assessing the effectiveness of injectable antiretroviral therapy for people living with HIV. I have a keen interest in the spectrum of TB disease and the impact that subclinical TB has on the burden of disease.
I serve on many Data Safety and Monitoring Boards (DSMB) for trials of new regimens for TB treatment as an independent statistician.
My recent work in the field of electronic health records focused on the COVID-19 pandemic, where working on behalf of NHS England I analysed data from UK general practice to test hypotheses in order to inform pandemic modelling studies.
