Summary

As I explore the cross-section of international relations, political science, and public health, my research focuses on learning and helping others to understand the political, legal, and commercial determinants of health - the impact of governance and trade on health policy implementation. My publications address questions related to the linkages between tobacco control regulations, the world trade system and IP rights.
