His research integrates dental public health with oncology, examining health inequalities, planetary health, and sustainability in healthcare systems. He specializes in qualitative methodologies and health systems analysis to address oral health disparities, with particular emphasis on head and neck cancer epidemiology and diagnosis pathways across diverse international contexts.
His 2022-2025 publications reveal consistent focus on head and neck cancer trends, staging patterns, and health system determinants using UK cancer registry data and multinational collaborations. The work demonstrates increasing integration of planetary health perspectives with traditional public health frameworks, particularly through the EU-funded HEADSpAcE project examining advanced-stage cancer diagnosis across South American and European health systems.
