Personal profile
Research profile
My research focuses on implementation science in healthcare, with a particular focus on primary care and general practice. I examine how evidence-based interventions, new technologies, policies, and health system reforms are implemented and evaluated in real-world clinical settings. Drawing on my background in epidemiology, I use register-based and mixed-method approaches to study implementation and de-implementation processes across sectors, with the aim of understanding effectiveness, contextual determinants, and sustainability in complex healthcare systems.
