SunyaEK conducts and supports applied research that strengthens the evidence base for digital health in Nepal and similar low- and middle-income settings. We collaborate with universities, research institutes, government bodies, and global partners to translate findings into policy, practice, and product.

Our research focus

• Implementation research on EMR, HIE, and mHealth deployments
• Health data quality, completeness, and use studies
• AI evaluation: clinical validation, fairness, and real-world performance
• Cost-effectiveness and sustainability of digital health interventions
• Digital health workforce and capacity studies
• Public health informatics, disease surveillance, and epidemiology
• Operational research using routine DHIS2 and EMR datasets

We publish in peer-reviewed journals, contribute to global open-source communities, and host research fellowships for graduate students and early-career investigators.
