Research

Latest activities

Co – I in a GCRF: UCL Internal Small Grant in Multi-hazard hurricane and epidemic risk assessment for a small Caribbean island developing state.

I am also working on research with the UCL IRDR Centre for Digital Public Health in Emergencies (dPHE). The journaling and wellbeing #MyLockdownJournal app is now out! Download it for Android phones now! https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.dphejournal
This can help to: Boost the UK population’s mental health and wellbeing during the current crisis; Collect research data to inform public health policy and reduce future disaster risk; and Develop a personalised digital behaviour intervention to improve wellbeing in the post-lockdown period!
Track your daily activities and contribute to our research informing public health policy! We hope you enjoy using it and find it useful, especially knowing you’re contributing to research while you use it!
