Career summary
I have been working at UEA since April 2005, initially working in the Biomedicine research team, and since September 2008, as a member of Health Economics Group.
Key Research Interests
Current research interests include the economic evaluation of a diabetes prevention programme (UEA-IFG trial) and assessing the cost of inpatient care for diabetic patients compared with non-diabetics (DIPSat study).
I am interested in willingness to pay for screening tests, measuring efficiency of recruitment strategies onto diabetes screening programmes, and evaluation of peer-support
Previous research focused on effectiveness & cost effectiveness modelling for new diagnostic technologies for food poisoning, and epidemiological research on the burden of foodborne disease in the community.
