Non-communicable disease (NCD) in resource-poor countries: epidemiology, clinical features and management of prevalent diseases and their risk factors.
Health service/operational research related to strengthening health systems and appropriate health care interventions for NCDs.
The role of cultural and belief systems in determining population engagement with NCD care systems.
His research interests are in biomedical signal processing with applications in neurophysiology and cardio-vascular and cerebro-vascular control. Specific topics are:
Blood flow control in the brain (how does the brain regulate is own blood supply and how to detect impairment of this function).
Auditory evoked potentials (methods to detect the small electrical responses of the brain to auditory stimulation for the assessment of various hearing disorders).
