  • Evaluation of The Essential Network (TEN). TEN is a blended care mental health support service for health professionals. This research includes both quantitative and qualitative methods examining usage of TEN, barriers to health professionals engaging with TEN, as well as formal assessment of TEN and its components through observational studies and randomised-controlled trials.
  • Medication adherence in gout. This research encompasses the Gout APP (GAPP) trial, a randomised-controlled trial of a mobile application for people with gout, as well as other novel avenues for improving medication adherence in gout, such as the use of point-of-care devices. 
  • Medication side effects and the placebo/nocebo effects.
