Mohammad Alsallakh MD, PhD

Dr. Mohammad A. Alsallakh is a Researcher Officer at the Breathe Hub for respiratory health data at Swansea University. He has developed the Wales Asthma Observatory (WAO) as a platform for asthma research and surveillance. Throughout his Ph.D. study, in which he developed the Wales Asthma Observatory, he had a growing interest in population health data and how it has massively changed the way we understand health and disease, conduct epidemiological studies and evaluate clinical and public health interventions.

He has been focusing on asthma, other respiratory diseases, and recently COVID-19, which are exemplary conditions in which population health data are invaluable. He has a particular interest in socioeconomic inequalities in asthma. In addition, he has been actively developing tools to facilitate reproducible research in my field.
