About
Research interests: My research interests lie in public health epidemiology and Health Systems Research, with a particular focus on implementation science, multimorbidity assessment and integration, and precision public health. I am dedicated to advancing the quality, efficiency, and cost-effectiveness of acute and chronic care through the development of equitable, scalable care pathways within primary healthcare systems. My work also encompasses the design and evaluation of sustainable and resilient service delivery models at the organizational and policy levels, examining the influence of group dynamics, community structures, and institutional factors on the effectiveness of integrated non-communicable disease (NCD) as well as infectious disease programs. A key priority in this regard is advancing research on optimizing digital health data to support an agile, data-driven public health infrastructure, generating evidence to inform health policy, investment, and research priorities that aim to reduce the global burden of disease.
