- Profile
-
I joined ScHARR as a researcher in 2009. Prior to joining ScHARR, I undertook an undergraduate MA in Economics at the University of Aberdeen. This was followed by a 4 year MRC HSRC Studentship to undertake a Masters in Economics and Health Economics followed by a PhD at the University of Sheffield.
- Research interests
-
My research interests are:
- Measuring and valuing health and quality of life
- Mapping between measures to generate utility values
- Developing preference-based measures of health from existing measures
- Measuring and valuing child health
Current projects
I am currently working on an MRC and Euroqol group funded study developing and testing a new preference-based measure - the EQ Health and Wellbeing (EQ-HWB) - for use across different populations including patients, social care users and informal carers.
I am part of the team leading the new valuation study of the EQ-5D-5L. I am also involved in EEPRU studies assessing the use of preference-based measures in children/adolescents.
