Medical doctor and public health researcher working on digital health, health services research, nutrition/food security, and non-communicable diseases.

About

I am a medical doctor and researcher originally from Myanmar (Burma). I graduated with an MBBS from the University of Medicine, Mandalay, and an MPH from the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health. I am currently pursuing my PhD at the National University of Singapore, Saw Swee Hock School of Public Health.

My research interests span digital health, implementation science, health services research, social media research and digital epidemiology, nutrition and food security, and non-communicable diseases. I am proficient in both quantitative and qualitative methods, and I am always eager to build on these with new tools and skills. I have also led and contributed to several reviews.
