My research focuses on using evidence synthesis methods to test the effectiveness of tobacco-use cessation and relapse prevention interventions.
Working with the Cochrane Tobacco Addiction Group (CTAG), I manage and coordinate the preparation and publication of systematic reviews in the area of tobacco control. CTAG is part of Cochrane, an international not-for-profit and independent organization, dedicated to producing and disseminating up-to-date, accurate information about the effects of healthcare worldwide.
I'm also a philosopher interested in the philosophy of evidence-based healthcare; in particular the value and methods of evidence synthesis, and how we define and classify diseases and how this impacts on healthcare practice and medical research.
