Research
I am a Postdoctoral Fellow working on a project funded by the Healthier Lives National Science Challenge that aims to improve health equity in Aotearoa New Zealand by focusing on how health interventions are implemented and developing approaches to support equitable implementation. I have a background in basic science research, completing my PhD in neuroendocrinology in the Department of Anatomy at the University of Otago.
My current research interests include:
- Developing tools to support health services to implement interventions equitably
- Understanding the factors that influence equitable implementation
