Fawzia is also building research collaborations in One Health, health misinformation, and disinformation alongside colleagues at King's College London.

She is currently working on her first book based on her doctoral research and developing health and science communication projects.
Fawzia's background in media and public broadcasting (including the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation / Radio-Canada) makes her particularly concerned with sharing research outside academia.
