Sasha Shepperd

BA, MSc, DPhil

Professor of Health Services Research

Sasha’s research uses epidemiological methods, randomised trials and evidence synthesis to answer pressing health service/systems questions, with a focus on population ageing. Sasha was the chief investigator of a NIHR funded multi-site randomised trial of Hospital at Home vs hospital admission that was awarded the BGS Dhole-Eddlestone Memorial prize in 2023 and contributed to the evidence supporting NHS England’s virtual ward programme.  More recently, supported by Health Foundation funding, she is leading a research programme that looks at the impact of inequalities that drive the demand for social care by an older population, is a co-investigator on CRUK funded research (led by Toral Gathani) on barriers and facilitators to the early diagnosis of breast cancer in ethnic minority women and a co-lead for the Cochrane Thematic Group: People, Health Systems and Public Health.

After an undergraduate degree in psychology from the University of Vermont, Sasha completed a master's at the Harvard School of Public Health and a DPhil at the University of Oxford.
