Anna is a health systems scientist with expertise in co-design methodology and implementation studies with mixed-methods evaluation. She is a Senior Research Fellow in health systems at the George Institute for Global Health and Program Lead for Ageing and Health Systems.

Anna's research centres on the co-design of effective implementation strategies to strengthen primary health care services in resource-constrained settings of the Asia-Pacific region. She has a particular interest in the development of appropriate health system responses to healthy ageing: Anna has previously implemented a longitudinal study on aspects of healthy ageing in older Australians with cataract, recently led an assessment of health system strengthening needs to support healthy ageing in Fiji, and is currently partnering with the Asia-Pacific Observatory on Health Systems and Policies to drive evidence generation to support healthy ageing policy in Tonga, Kiribati and Federated States of Micronesia.

Anna is committed to evidence-informed health policy and practice. She has a strong track record of partnering with government stakeholders in the design of policy-relevant research, has co-authored commissioned reports for government bodies and advocacy groups, and has produced policy briefs for government departments.
