Research Overview

My research focuses on using electronic health records to investigate characteristics of stroke patients, risk factors for stroke, medication use before and after stroke, and clinical outcomes after stroke, with particular interest in intracerebral haemorrhage (ICH). I also have a strong interest in pharmacy practice and patient and public involvement and engagement (PPIE) in health and social care research.
