Research

I lead epidemiological and data science studies aimed at identifying risk factors for acute illness and hospitalisation, development of persistent critical illness, and long-term outcomes following critical care. This research aims to better understand the interaction between acute declines in health and development of long-term illness. It seeks to identify opportunities to intervene and address determinants of long-term poor health, particularly for disadvantaged patient groups.
