Research Interests
• Epidemiology
• Waterborne disease and private water supplies
• Health Economics
• Research Methods
My research area is focused on the epidemiology of waterborne disease and I have contributed to projects funded by the World Health Organisation, European Commission and Defra in this area. I also have a keen interest in health economics and research methods. I am a research advisor for the National Institute for Health Research (NIHR) Research Design Service (RDS), this service offers consultative advice to health and social care professionals, providing methodological advice to help develop research proposals and build collaborative research teams.
