Biography
I am a health economist by training, doing research at the University of Cambridge. I lead the Menopause MATTERs study under Dr Melanie Sloan, which investigates the impact of menopause and its treatment on women with autoimmune diseases. My research focuses on how menopausal symptoms interact with disease activity, and the role of hormone replacement therapy (HRT) in symptom management, long-term health outcomes and overall quality of life. The study also explores patient and clinician experiences to inform more effective and evidence-based approaches to menopause care in this population.
