My main expertise is applied economic evaluation and outcomes research primarily in the fields of mental health, public health, diabetes and perinatal health. Other long ongoing research interests include cost-effective clinical guideline development; broader system-level evaluation and international comparison of health services; and comparative health systems and health care rationing research.
