Research interests
- Cardiovascular epidemiology - understanding the complex interrelationships of environment, behaviour, and chronic conditions with cardiovascular diseases
- Early life factors - identifying pregnancy and childhood factors that can have long-term health consequences
- Precision public health - transforming the current one-size-fits-all public health guidelines into bite-size personal-level advices
