Why I chose GIPH and my programme
The MPH at GIPH complemented my clinical training in Ayurveda and expanded my academic path into epidemiology, implementation science and health systems research.
My experience at GIPH
My public health training supports work across implementation science, community-based cancer screening, paediatric and geriatric health, access to oncology care and the integration of palliative care.
I have led or contributed to projects with Roche Pharma India, Karkinos Healthcare, CHRI-PATH and Pallium India. My work uses both qualitative and quantitative research methods, and I have authored peer-reviewed publications and book chapters on public health challenges, geriatric health and health equity.
