I have worked in health research from ‘the bench to the community’ and have been involved in numerous research grants either as main investigator, co-investigator, biostatistician or named researcher.   I have experience in the fields of public health, digital health, genetics, health economics, social research, environmental and occupational health, translational health research and clinical trials, among others. I have served in ethics committees, Research Excellence Framework (REF), Equality, Diversity and Inclusion (EDI) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) working groups. I have led research projects at the WHO and other international organizations whilst working in Asia, South Pacific, USA and Europe. I have been involved in studies of different diseases including cancer, cardiovascular diseases, respiratory diseases, chronic kidney disease, HIV/AIDS and diabetes. Having a wide range of experience in quantitative and qualitative research, clinical trials and mixed methods research, I collaborate locally and internationally with experts from different academic and research disciplines.

My research interests include the following:

• Digital health, artificial intelligence (AI) methods, and modelling techniques that could be efficiently applied to answer questions on identification of disease states, treatment efficacy, treatment cost-effectiveness and disease prevention
• Understanding the determinants of health and disease using real world data and big data analytical tools in biostatistics and epidemiology
• Applications of AI in biomarker studies, healthcare and clinical trials
• Population and family-based analysis methods in genetics

I am currently engaged in several MRC and NIHR funded health studies and clinical trials. I serve in various trial steering and data monitoring committees.
