Personal profile
Research interests
I am an early career academic with 10+ years of research experience, particularly in clinical trials. My skills cover all aspects of the research process, including intellectual contributions to study conceptualization, study logistics, ethics management, data collection, and strong analytical and writing skills. I have been working mostly investating nutritional intervervention for cardiovascular disease and cogtnive disorders. Now, I am expanding my research interest to Public Health by working as a clinical trial manager for the EASSI-PC (Evidence-based Antimicrobial Stewardship: Sustainable Implementation in Primary Care), an implementation trial to determine the best strategies for reducing inappropriate antibiotic use in clinical settings.
