I am Course Director for the MSc in International Health and Tropical Medicine, Centre for Tropical Medicine and Global Health, Nuffield Department of Medicine. My research empirically examines the relationship between processes of development and health in resource limited and transition contexts, appreciating the multidimensionality of both.
