Project Title:

Long-term exposure to environmental factors and cardiometabolic multimorbidity, and all-cause mortality

 

Research interests:

My research examines how environmental exposures, such as air pollution, ambient temperature, and neighbourhood greenness, impact cardiovascular and metabolic health, with a particular focus on cardiometabolic multimorbidity. The overarching goal of my work is to generate epidemiological evidence to inform preventive strategies and public health policies that reduce environmental health risks and support healthy ageing.

Areas of interest:
- Environmental Epidemiology
- Cardiometabolic Health
- Chronic Disease Prevention
- Healthy Ageing
