Overview

I have a background in philosophy and medical sociology – with expertise in ethics and qualitative methodologies – and professional experience in the management consulting industry and charity sector. I am a Lecturer in Public Health, and member of the Relational Health Group.

I am leading 'Care Under Pressure': an interdisciplinary research programme that aims to understand the causes of mental ill-health and well-being in health professionals, across specialties and career stages, and make informed recommendations to tackle this problem. I also work for the European School of Oncology on Oncohumanities - including ethical issues around cancer care, supportive care, end of life, and dying.   

I previously undertook research on ethical, legal and social issues around genomic medicine and research at Egenis: the Centre for the Study of Life Sciences (see for example Recontacting in mainstreaming genetics).

An evaluation of Interim Foundation Programme (FiY1) posts: new doctors’ adaptation to practice during the COVID-19 crisis - Project webpage: tiny.cc/2020graduates
This project explores the experience of ‘the class of COVID’ new medical graduates who are starting work in the UK during the COVID-19 crisis. It is led by Newcastle University School of Medical Education, with colleagues from Exeter University, Plymouth University and Queen’s University Belfast. It is supported by the GMC, Medical Schools Council and other stakeholders, and will explore with questionnaires and interviews how starting practice at this unprecedented time affects new doctors. This is the only study with the support of all national bodies responsible for trainee doctors.
