About
Clinical questions.
Population evidence.
I bring together epidemiology, clinical trials and evidence synthesis to study how we can prevent disease and improve health.
My background combines medical training with a PhD from the University of Sydney. My doctoral research examined lifestyle and digital health interventions for vascular function and cardiometabolic health.
My research interests also include early-course mood and psychotic disorders, with a focus on evaluating adjunctive interventions.
