I am a Senior Molecular Epidemiologist at the University of Oxford with over a decade of experience in biostatistics and epidemiology. My research focuses on integrating large-scale observational cohort data with high-dimensional omics data to identify biomarkers that inform treatment response and improve understanding of disease mechanisms in knee osteoarthritis (OA).

I currently serve as Lead Data Analyst for the STEPUP OA Consortium, an international collaboration investigating whether distinct molecular endotypes exist in knee OA through the integration of clinical cohort data with large-scale molecular profiling. In this role, I coordinate harmonised analyses across more than 1,700 participants from 17 international cohorts, combining detailed clinical phenotypes with synovial fluid proteomic data.
