My research portfolio includes a range of studies focused on health systems and financing research to improve women's, children's and adolescent health in under-resourced and humanitarian crises settings.

As part of the RECAP project, I am leading a study in Northern Uganda to assess health financing arrangements and service delivery for sexual, reproductive and maternal health intervention for refugee and Ugandan adolescent girls and women. In Lebanon, I am also involved in research assessing health financing arrangements for Syrian refugee and Lebanese women, adolescents and children. 

As part of the BRANCH consortium, I have conducted research on assessing supply- and demand-side factors to facilitating or hindering delivery of key health interventions for women and children in Syria. I am also leading a study on analyising the implementation of key interventions for women, children and adolescents in 10 conflict-affected countries in Africa, the Middle East, and Latin America. 

In Afghanistan, I work as part of an international team of academics to revise the country’s basic package of health services, with my role focused on leading a national- and subnational-level health system assessment with a view to assessing progress toward achieving universal health coverage targets.

I am also leading an evidence review of sexual and reproductive health interventions for young people in humanitarian settings.  

My research in under-resourced settings is focused on health financing, specifically assessing the health systems effects of pay for performance programmes in sub-Saharan Africa (Tanzania and Zambia).
