My doctoral research at Loughborough involves the application of novel statistical models to ascertain the relationship of heterogeneity in Adiposity and Diabetes. As I hail from a background in Dentistry and Public health, I have decent exposure to both clinical as well as population domains of healthcare with a specialization in 'Global Health'. Additionally, my research interests lie in strategic meta-analysis, risk factor modelling, and drawing meaningful conclusions from published epidemiological literature. I aspire to put into practice the best of my knowledge and experience to contribute to the WHO paradigm of "Health for all".
