Dr Nasser Bagheri is a Honorary Associate Professor at the Research School of Population health.

Nasser was previously a Senior Research Fellow and spatial epidemiologist at the Australian National University (ANU), recipient of an Australian Research Council DECRA Fellowship and leads Visual and Decision Analytics (VIDEA) lab in the Centre for Mental Health Research. His research has focused on health care ecosystem and chronic diseases risk assessment, particularly, mental health, cardiovascular disease (CVD), diabetes, dementia, and Multiple Sclerosis. His primary research focus is on the application of spatial risk assessment methods and population-based intervention studies to provide epidemiological evidence for more rational implementation of strategies for the control of chronic diseases. He also conducts research in spatial epidemiology, geo-spatial analysis and modelling, and quantifying the impact of modifiable risk factors including lifestyle and contextual factors on chronic diseases. He is also interested in visualisation of health care and services patterns to generate evidence-informed policy for better policy planning and tailored interventions.
