Jan Savinc is a Research Fellow at the School of Health and Social Care at Edinburgh Napier University. With expertise in data linkage methodologies and mental health research, Dr. Savinc contributes significantly to studies examining the relationship between childhood adversity and suicide, as well as mental health and substance use service utilization among vulnerable populations including individuals transitioning from prison to community settings. Dr. Savinc's research profile demonstrates strong methodological skills in administrative data linkage, with particular focus on the CHASE (Childhood Adversity and Suicide Evaluation) study and the RELEASE project examining mental health care pathways for people released from prison. Their work bridges quantitative health research methods with practical mental health service applications. Research interests span mental health, data linkage techniques, eHealth applications, public health policy, childhood adversity impacts, suicide prevention strategies, and prison health services. Dr. Savinc employs innovative approaches to connect administrative health data across systems to understand complex healthcare utilization patterns and identify critical intervention points. Analysis of recent publications reveals a consistent focus on using population-level data to address pressing mental health challenges, with particular emphasis on vulnerable populations. The research demonstrates methodological sophistication in handling linked datasets while maintaining practical relevance for healthcare providers and policymakers. Dr. Savinc collaborates extensively with researchers across Scotland, particularly with colleagues at Edinburgh Napier University's Centre for Mental Health Practice, Policy and Law Research and Population and Public Health Research Group, including Professor Nadine Dougall, Professor Thanos Karatzias, and Professor Brian Williams.
