Curriculum

My research interests cover the following main areas:
- Psychological and psychosocial interventions for people exposed to traumatic experiences in low- and middle-income countries;
- Global mental health and public health at community level;
- Treatment, preventative and promotion interventions for children living in humanitarian settings;
- Mental health of vulnerable populations.
I apply the most rigorous research methodologies to the field of Global Mental Health, including randomized controlled trials, systematic reviews, standard meta-analyses, network meta-analyses, and individual participant data meta-analyses.
