Dr, Consultant Psychiatrist, Clinician Scientist Fellow, PhD FRCPsych
I am a Clinical Reader in Social & Psychiatric Epidemiology at King's College London (IoPPN) and an Honorary Consultant Liaison Psychiatrist with South London & Maudsley Trust/ King's College Hospital.
My research interests centre on mental health inequalities and methodologies to understand and address this. I previously led a six year programme of research relating to physical health in severe mental illnesses, with a focus on intersections with ethnicity and other inequalities. I was part of the evidence review and synthesis team which supported the development of WHO guidelines on the management of physical health conditions in adults with severe mental disorders. More recently our team's focus has moved to examining the impact of COVID-19 on widening ethnic inequalities in mental health outcomes, which we are assessing through quantitative analysis of large-scale datasets and qualitative methodologies. I am also interested in the possibility of data linkage to maximise the potential of existing datasets, having led a database linkage of electronic health records from South London & Maudsley Trust (CRIS) to UK Census records, to better understand social predictors and outcomes in people living with psychosis. Our team has also developed novel text mining approaches to identify employment and occupations from free text in mental health records, which we are developing with a view to understanding occupational inequalities experienced by people with mental health problems. I am the cohorts and statistics platform co-lead for the KCL ESRC Centre for Society and Mental Health.
