معرفی
Rosie Seaman is a Research Fellow at the University of Glasgow's School of Health & Wellbeing. Her current research focuses on mortality inequalities and secondary analysis of administrative data, particularly through a CSO-funded project examining syndemic health conditions among individuals with drug-related deaths. Previously, she held roles as a Lecturer at the University of Stirling and a Research Scientist at the Max Planck Institute for Demographic Research. She completed her PhD in 2017 and returned to the University of Glasgow in 2021 to work in the Relationships and Health Program.
Research Interests: Seaman specializes in mortality inequalities, socio-economic health disparities, and the analysis of large-scale health datasets. Her work bridges epidemiology and public health, with a focus on how policies and structural factors influence health outcomes. Recent projects include studying the impacts of austerity on UK mortality trends and analyzing diabetes-related health disparities in Scotland.
Grants: She secured a Medical Research Council grant (2022–2023) to map administrative data sources for perinatal mental health policy evaluations. Her research frequently addresses systemic issues, such as the socioeconomic determinants of health and the role of social security in life expectancy.
Advisory & Collaboration: Seaman is open to mentoring postgraduate students interested in health-related topics and administrative data analysis. She collaborates with institutions like the Drugs Research Network for Scotland and contributes to interdisciplinary projects addressing complex health challenges.
