I'm not equally interested in everything that comes under "digital health" or "public health." The list below is roughly the spectrum of work where I add the most, in rough priority order.
Cyberchondria, problematic digital use, AI-assisted health information seeking, screening-instrument development. Especially in medical-student and young-adult populations.
Cross-cultural validation, adaptation, and psychometric work on digital-behaviour screening instruments for Indian populations — particularly where existing scales were validated only in Western or East Asian samples.
Longitudinal cohort work, dose-response modelling, behavioural predictors of health outcomes, instrument validation. Comfortable across cross-sectional and prospective designs.
Nutritional status, biological-aging biomarkers, functional age composites, household-level assessment in rural and semi-urban Indian populations.
Pre-registered (PROSPERO/OSF), dual-reviewer, GRADE-rated, with R-based proportion or effect meta-analysis. Particularly in digital health and medical-student populations.
MBBS or postgraduate students working on dissertation-level public-health research, especially in digital health, cyberchondria, or NCD epidemiology.
