BIO

I graduated in 2002 from the University of Sheffield with a BSc in Biochemistry & Microbiology. I then made the move from molecular science into epidemiology and public health by studying for the MSc Control of Infectious Diseases at LSHTM.

Since completing my Masters in 2004, I have been involved in a number of different projects at the School, related to water and sanitation, visceral leishmaniasis and malaria. My interests are in delivery systems for disease control interventions, and monitoring and evaluation of their equity with a particular emphasis on the role of economic evaluation to inform decision-making.
