Subhash welcomes applications from prospective PhD students. Please email him a 4-page outline of your PhD project idea, describing: (i) the critical knowledge gaps; (ii) potential sources of data; and (iii) your approach to analysis. Your project is expected to answer one of the following two questions (please adapt them to your own specific needs): 

1. In LMICs and industrialised countries, what (policies, interventions and tools) works to improve population health outcomes and at what costs?
2. In LMICs and industrialised countries, what (policies, interventions and tools) works to develop or strengthen national health research systems and at what costs?      

The following is a list of indicative topic areas for potential PhD students:

• Cross-context  of economic evidence 
• Understanding pathways from health behaviour change (e.g. stopping to smoke) to QALYs and cost-savings
• Return on investment from stakeholder engagement in research
• Return on investment from knowledge translation (i.e. filling the 'knowledge-to-action' gaps)
• Cost-effectiveness of initiatives targetted at strengthening national health research systems 

Potential candidates are encouraged to approach Subhash on Subhash.Pokhrel@brunel.ac.uk or 01895 268745. They are also encouraged to read more information about research at HERG.

It is important to note that your email request may not be attended to if your potential PhD project does not address the above two questions or is not related to one of the above indicative topic areas. So, please do consider carefully the above scope before contacting Subhash.
