My qualifications
ResearchResearch interests
Mehmet's PhD research is aimed at understanding whether policies and initiatives directed towards reducing the cost burden of individuals' access to healthcare have an impact on health outcomes. Another aim of his project is to assess the extent to which differences in socio-economic status within society explain variation in health outcomes and whether other determinants influence health outcomes and health inequality. And if so, what is their relationship with the accessibility of healthcare.
