About the Founder: Suman Sharma Paudel
Welcome to Research Sapling, a digital space dedicated to bridging the gap between rigorous academic literature and actionable global health insights.
I am Suman Sharma Paudel, a Postgraduate Researcher (PGR) at Coventry University, United Kingdom. My doctoral research focuses on the growing burden of Non-Communicable Diseases (NCDs), with a highly specialized focus on adult lung health in South Asia and the Nepalese context.
I founded Research Sapling couple of years ago with a simple mission: to document fascinating developments in clinical trials and public health. Over nearly a decade, as my own career evolved from clinical practice and research to doctoral-level work in the UK, this blog evolved with me.
Today, Research Sapling serves as an authentic, evidence-based platform exploring the intersections of:
Respiratory & Non-Communicable Diseases (NCDs): Tracking epidemiology, preventative measures, and public health interventions for chronic diseases, particularly within South Asian populations.
Environmental Epidemiology & Lung Health: Examining how modern environmental factors—such as household air pollution, urban air quality, and occupational hazards—impact respiratory health.
Clinical Epidemiology & Global Health Policy: Deconstructing complex clinical trial designs that affect public health outcomes.
