      I certainly think it is interesting – but that is for you to decide! I am using health data (e.g. GP or A&E information) to understand more about diagnosing and treatment of mental health disorders. More specifically, I am interested in what makes misdiagnosing and errors in treatment occur 🙂 My long-term aim is to identify the factors that lead to error, and hopefully develop ways of making sure these errors stop happening!
