Lecturer in Health Economics at Norwich Medical School.
I am a Lecturer in Health Economics at the University of East Anglia (UEA), Norwich Medical School.
My research interests lie in using micro-econometric techniques in health economics, while part of my research is also relevant to public economics and behavioural economics. Specifically, my research covers a range of topics such as the determinants of health, health care demand, utilisation of health services and health care costs, the economics of obesity, disability, and socio-economic inequalities in health. Part of my research also focuses on the survey measurement of health, and particularly the use of blood-based and nurse-collected biomarkers as health indicators for social science and health (economics) research.
I obtained my PhD from the University of Patras, Greece in March 2014. Prior to my PhD I completed an MSc in Health Economics at the University of York, U.K. a BA (Hons) in Economics and a BA (Hons) in Business Administration at the University of Patras, Greece.
