Eric's research examines how changes in public transport connectivity, particularly bus services, shape employment outcomes, social welfare, and wellbeing among low-income populations in the UK. He combines longitudinal public transport timetable data with administrative and survey datasets through advance accessibility and multilevel modelling, spatial statistics, and quasi-experimental designs to evaluate the social and economic consequences of public transport policy reforms and governance models. 

Prior to his PhD, Eric worked as a Research Spatial Analyst on a climate change and well-being project at the University of Southampton. He holds an MSc in Applied GIS and Remote Sensing from the University of Southampton.
