Anna Maria Hage

Anna joined the National Perinatal Epidemiology Unit (NPEU), University of Oxford, as a postdoctoral health services researcher in 2026.

She is interested in how healthcare systems can become more patient-centred by better responding to patients' needs in order to improve their care and outcomes.

Anna received medical training in Germany and Australia and holds both a medical degree (MD) and a doctoral degree (Dr. med.) from Charité – Universitätsmedizin Berlin. Prior to joining Oxford, she spent six years at Charité, where she worked at the intersection of health services research, value-based healthcare, digital health, and clinical research.

Her previous work includes the development of a multicentre registry for young women with breast cancer, research on monitoring systems using patient-reported outcomes, and the implementation and evaluation of healthcare innovations in clinical care.

At the NPEU, Anna is expanding her expertise in mixed-methods research, health economic evaluation, and evidence synthesis through work on clinical trials and routinely collected healthcare data.
