Mr Shamsudeen Mohammed

Research Fellow

United Kingdom

I hold an MSc in Demography and Health and a PhD in Epidemiology and Population Health, both from LSHTM. I also hold an MPH in Reproductive Health from the Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology in Ghana. I joined the Department of Non-Communicable Disease Epidemiology in 2024. My research focuses on the long-term health outcomes of cancer survivors.

Affiliations

Department of Non-communicable Disease Epidemiology
Faculty of Epidemiology and Population Health

Teaching

I supervise students in the MSc Sexual and Reproductive Health Policy and Programming Intensive online programme. I am also a tutor for the Statistics for Epidemiology and Statistical Methods in Epidemiology modules within the MSc in Epidemiology by Distance Learning (DL) programme.

Research

My current research involves the analysis of large-scale linked electronic healthcare data routinely collected in primary care practices across the UK, including the UK Clinical Practice Research Datalink, to understand the impact of androgen deprivation therapy on the risk of adverse cardiovascular outcomes among survivors of prostate cancer. I also collaborate on the African Breast Cancer-Disparities in Outcomes (ABC-DO) study to investigate longitudinal changes in health-related quality of life, functional quality of life, and symptom severity among women with breast cancer in sub-Saharan Africa.
