As a methodologist, she has extensive experience leading and conducting systematic reviews and evidence synthesis on a wide range of topics including reproductive health, education, economics, and social care. She has worked within policy research units and research centres at University College London (UCL), Canterbury Christchurch University (CCCU), and the University of Warwick.
