Nicholas is a postdoctoral researcher at the Bennett Institute having completed his DPhil there in 2022. He currently leads the research integrity work of the Institute including the TrialsTracker and RetractoBot projects and represents the Institute as a member of the OSIRIS consortium. Prior to joining the Bennett Institute he worked at Columbia University’s Center on Medicine as a Profession in New York studying the impact of the Physician Payments Sunshine Act. He also has experience working in and with the pharmaceutical industry. Nicholas completed his undergraduate degree at Cornell University and his MPH in Health Policy and Administration at the Yale School of Public Health.
