My research covers a range of topics relevant to health production function and human capital theory, the social and economic determinants of health, health care demand, utilisation of health services and health care costs, the role of energy deprivation on health/wellbeing outcomes, the economics of obesity, the economics of disability, the economics of prevention, the economics of risky behaviours, and socioeconomic inequalities in health and healthcare. I am also interested in the survey measurement of health and the implications of measurement error (in health measures) for the existing (health and labour) economics research.
On these topics, I published papers in the Journal of Health Economics (4 papers), Health Economics (6 papers), Journal of Economic Behavior & Organization, Energy Economics (3 papers), Economics Letters, Review of Income and Wealth, Social Science & Medicine (2 papers), Economics & Human Biology (6 papers), Empirical Economics, and in high impact interdisciplinary journals (PLOS One and Scientific Reports).
I joined GLO as a Research Fellow in 2020.
