A strong advocate for reproducible, code-first analytical practice, he considers transparency and computational rigour foundational to credible HTA and RWE generation.

Before joining SCRI, Zaw held roles at international non-governmental organisations, overseeing public health research in countries in South-east Asia and South Asia. He also completed a postdoctoral fellowship at NUS focused on rotavirus vaccine cost-effectiveness modelling in Lao PDR and analysis of Vietnam's national vaccination registry. Earlier in his career, he led operational research and developed an electronic database for a large HIV patient cohort, alongside the clinical work, under the International Union Against Tuberculosis and Lung Disease.
