Overview

My previous research focus was infection prevention and control, which aims to prevent patients from getting infections in the hospital through the use of interventions such as hand hygiene, isolation precautions, and environmental cleaning. My particular interest is novel behaviour change and culture change strategies in order to achieve the goal of reducing infections and improving health. I am also shifting focus to investigate the role of the microbiota in health and disease.
