Diddordebau Ymchwil
Mae fy ymchwil yn canolbwyntio ar wella iechyd a lles plant a phobl ifanc a lleihau anghydraddoldebau iechyd trwy ddatblygu, gweithredu a gwerthuso ymyriadau iechyd cyhoeddus, dulliau systemau a mentrau polisi.
Mae fy ngwaith yn rhychwantu tri maes rhyng-gysylltiedig:
Iechyd, lles ac anghydraddoldebau plant a'r glasoed
Deall a gwella iechyd corfforol, iechyd meddwl ac ymddygiadau iechyd pobl ifanc, gyda ffocws penodol ar ysgolion fel lleoliadau ar gyfer gwella iechyd.
Ymyrraeth iechyd cyhoeddus a gwerthuso polisi
Dylunio a gwerthuso ymyriadau a pholisïau cymhleth sy'n ymwneud â gweithgarwch corfforol, maeth, amgylcheddau ysgol a phenderfynyddion iechyd ehangach, gan ddefnyddio ystod o ddulliau arbrofol, lled-arbrofol a naturiol.
Data iechyd poblogaeth ac ymchwil dulliau cymysg
Defnyddio data arolwg ar raddfa fawr, cysylltu data arferol a dulliau cymysg i ddeall anghydraddoldebau iechyd a chefnogi polisi ac ymarfer sy'n seiliedig ar dystiolaeth.
Addysgu
