Overview

Area of Study / Keywords

Bariatric Medicine MASLD (metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease) Hepatology Preventive Medicine Public and Population Health


Research

My research is focused on the area of Bariatric (Obesity) Medicine, MASLD (metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease), and Excess Weight Prevention and Management at the individual and population levels.

My interest lies in the area of eating behaviour, nutritional deficiencies, the link between obesity and mood and anxiety disorders, as well as the quality of life among people living with excess weight and MASLD. I am also currently exploring the association of obesity with low cancer screening rates which is alarmingly concerning nowadays, and gender disparities in food insecurity and what is the direction and magnitude of its association with obesity across Canada.

Several of my most recent projects are also aimed at exploring the clinical significance of MASLD and obesity in various patient populations as well as describing and comprehensively analyzing trends of obesity (including mild and severe obesity) and overweight in Canada over the last one and a half decades and how those trajectories differ depending on sex, age, and geographic aspects, along with making projections for the future.
