I joined the Faculty of Public Health and Policy to work on the ACTwatch Project examining access to malaria treatment, and since have worked on several projects related to access to care and health systems development in low- and middle-income countries, including the update to the Rockefeller Foundation's influential Good Health at Low Cost report. I have also worked on several projects examining the influence of health systems and access to care on cardiovascular disease and its risk factors: The Prospective Urban and Rural Epidemiological study (PURE) is one of the largest studies which has established prospective cohorts in 25 countries at all levels of economic development; and the recently-completed RESPOND project, which examined barriers to hypertension care faced by poor households in Malaysia and the Philippines. I am currently working on a mixed-methods project in India and Kenya that seeks to understand how e-pharmacy markets can be regulated appropriately to optimise the quality, safety and accessibility of medicines, and on the ChangePHC project assessing primary healthcare reform in Georgia, where I co-lead on a work package monitoring population-level indicators of equity and access to primary health care.

My current areas of interest include pharmaceutical policy, improving access to medicines, and health systems strengthening in low- and middle-income country settings.

This year I will be tutoring students on the Public Health for Global Practice and Public Health master's courses, and teaching on the Basic Statistics for Public Health & Policy module for students on the School's Distance Learning MSc in Public Health.
