MsSangita Shakya

I am an early-career researcher at the Institute for Health Transformation (IHT) at Deakin University and have recently submitted my PhD in Health Economics. My research integrates epidemiology, health services research, and health economics to generate evidence that informs healthcare policy and improves chronic disease management. My research interests include cardiovascular disease, primary care, multimorbidity, healthcare utilisation, and economic evaluation, with a particular focus on using linked administrative and primary care data to improve health outcomes, strengthen health systems, and inform health policy.
