Research
The focus of my research has been to use electronic health records to investigate long-term kidney outcomes after COVID-19 and the economic effects of the pandemic on kidney care. I primarily work on the OpenSAFELY platform, but have also had the opportunity to undertake complementary research in collaboration with the Stockholm CREAtinine Measurements (SCREAM) project based at Karolinska Institutet.
