Personal profile
Overview
I work with large-scale electronic health databases, the Clinical Practice Research Datalink (CPRD), the UK Biobank and the SAIL Databank, to investigate epidemiologic/pharmacoepidemiologic related research questions.
I have been involved in Diabetes UK projects investigating cardiovascular events in patients with diabetes and type 2 diabetes prediction models, specifically assessing addition of sleep traits.
I am currently working on the Global Psoriasis Atlas project, examining multimorbidity in people with psoriasis.
