Research

I am the Lead for the school Oral Health Research Group. The group is an interdisciplinary team comprises dedicated researchers from various fields, uniting the expertise of clinical dentistry, health psychology, and biostatistics. Together, we are committed to advancing oral health research through collaborative and person-focused research, with a primary goal of enhancing health outcomes and addressing health inequalities. One of our strengths is engaging with our patients in many ways, as a group we strive to involve the local communities in our research from its inception to dissemination and implementation. My main focus is investigating and reducing health inequalities. Below are most recent grants award and publications
