I’m a statistical pharmacoepidemiologist in the Medical Statistics Department at the London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine (LSHTM).

My research surrounds the use and development of causal inference methods for investigating the effectiveness and safety of medications using routinely collected EHR data. I'm a member of the Electronic Health Records (EHR) Research Group at LSHTM, and collaborate on a range of projects with this team.
