Jamie Hartmann-Boyce

My research mainly consists of applied evidence synthesis for health policy, including in the areas of tobacco control, electronic cigarettes, diet, physical activity, and management of long-term conditions. I have a particular interest in diabetes, having lived with type 1 diabetes since childhood. I work closely with Cochrane and lead a number of research programs focusing on smoking cessation and electronic cigarettes. I am also involved in developing methods for evidence synthesis and primary research, including quantitative and qualitative synthesis and work on incorporating equity considerations into systematic reviews. I am passionate about communicating complex information and data to inform policy and public action. I work hard to engage the public in my research and have been involved in podcasts, blogging, tv and radio interviews, and songwriting to communicate research results outside of academia.
