I am a kidney doctor and NIHR-funded doctoral fellow at the University of Bristol. Mainly using national anonymised health records, I study which medicines can safely be stopped in people with advanced kidney disease, and what happens when they are.

My doctoral fellowship project, DEPILL-CKD - DEPrescribing In peopLe Living with advanced Chronic Kidney Disease: understanding patterns and outcomes, uses population-level electronic health record data to characterise deprescribing practices in primary care and to examine the causal effect of deprescribing on clinical outcomes.

Supervised by Professors Fergus Caskey, Jonathan Sterne and Rupert Payne (University of Exeter), and Associate Professor Rachel Denholm, I am applying longitudinal modelling techniques and causal inference methods to generate evidence to support safer and more effective medicines use for people living with advanced kidney disease.
