Research Synopsis

My research interest has focused on health innovation policies with a particular focus on low-and-middle income countries. I have, for instance, examined health innovation systems in the emerging economies, Brazil, China, India and South Africa, and studied the role of international cooperation (South-South and North-South) in the innovation process, and I want to continue this work. I am also particularly interested in examining policy coherence among various policies for improving access to medicine in low-and-middle income countries.
