I am an applied social science early career researcher in global mental health, underpinned by a specialism in empirical ethics. My research interests are in the normative dimensions to mental healthcare delivery; as well as what it means to conduct research ethically. My research focusses on the applied research/practice interface, developing and testing mental health interventions or instruments, and empirically examining the practice of healthcare and research. My research goals are to enhance the ethical foundations of both research and practice in the field of global mental health.
