Overview
Hi I'm Sean a Research Fellow with the NIHR Applied Research Collaboration South West Penninsula (PenARC) based in the PenCHORD operational research team. My role within the PenCHORD team is to apply operational research methods to help with the understanding and improvement of healthcare service provision. The majority of my work is focused in the area of mental health service provision and I lead this area of research for PenCHORD. Currently I am working on network-based whole system modelling of mental health services.
