Used to be the coordinator of a nationwide registry team that for 15 years collected individual-level and administrative-level information from medical facilities treating almost 40,000 persons in order to monitor service delivery, inequalities in treatment provision, drug availability, treatment quality, and patient survival. In the recent period, a substantial part of my work is dedicated to real-world data analysis for the estimation of disease burden, quality of health services, related healthcare resources utilization and cost in an Italian region with 10 million inhabitants, with the focus on patient outcomes and geographical differences. Based on my experience, I have been invited to join the Global Burden of Disease Study, in which I mainly contributed to the estimates of chronic kidney disease, diabetes, and cardiovascular diseases, UHC, as well as their behavioral, nutritional and metabolic risk factors.
