I am a Social scientist with a research interest in gender, reproductive health and health systems. Currently I am working as lead researcher on a Dfid/AusAid sponsored research project focused on improving skilled birth attendance in the rural areas of Pakistan.
I graduated with a medical degree in 2005, following which I worked in the area of Hospital Administration and developed an interest in health systems and policy issues. Following on my interest, I studied for an MSc in Social Policy at the London School of Economics and Political Sciences on an academic merit scholarship.

My responsibilities include designing and teaching courses on Health Systems and Gender, Research Methodology, Health policy and Healthcare Financing; and conducting and supervising research.
