Senior Research Fellow in Health Sciences, University of Auckland, Waipapa Taumata Rau

I am a senior researcher in social epidemiology, affiliated with both the University of Auckland and City, St George's University of London. Holding a BA, MA, and PhD in Psychology, I specialise in quantitative survey methods and in measuring population health and well-being. My research explores population trends in health and health behaviours, examining the social context of physical and mental health, particularly the impact of family dynamics, violence, abuse, and socioeconomic adversity.
