- Profile
-
My work at ScHARR has concentrated around undertaking and developing methods for economic evaluations alongside controlled trials. Whilst the main focus of this work has been pre-hospital and emergency care, I have undertaken evaluations in numerous other areas. A separate stream of work is examining the measurement and valuation of health care benefits.

- Research group
-
I am currently supervising the following postgraduate research students:
- Yingpeng Qui, who is exploring methods to supporting the development of National List of Appropriate Health Technology in China.
- Naomi Gibbs who is exploring the health economic and equity impacts of alcohol pricing policies in South Africa.
- Abu Alshreef who is a NIHR Doctoral Research Fellow, looking at the development of a methodological framework to account for the impact of non-adherence on the cost-effectiveness of prescribed chronic medications.
- Tazeen Tahsina who is exploring the cost-effectiveness of interventions in relation to gestational hypertension and diabetes in Bangladesh
- Teaching interests
-
My teaching is concentrated around the methods of economic evaluation which I teaching in various formats on the Master Public Health, MSc International Health Technology Assessment, Pricing and Reimbursement and the MBChB.
I am the module coordinator for the Economic Evaluation modules on MSc International Health Technology Assessment, Pricing and Reimbursement and Masters in Public Health
I am interested in supervising Research Students wishing to develop the methods of economic evaluation and benefit valuation.
I currently supervise, or sit on the supervisory panel for three students; Victoria Brennan, Kinga Lowrie and Sabine Grimm. Their topics relate to the evaluation of an electronic patient questionnaire, evaluation of telehealth and the valuation of innovation in non-pharmaceutical technologies.
