Senior Research Officer in Health Data Science, Swansea University
I am a Senior Research Officer in Swansea Trials Unit and have over 20 years’ experience in project, trial and data management across a range of subjects including emergency care, access to healthcare, dementia and skin.
I have always been interested in prevention of ill health and access to healthcare. I obtained my PhD from Swansea University in 2014, exploring issues of demand for, and outcomes of, telephone-based health care by those living in areas of deprivation.
Recently I have combined my research interests with my personal interest in skin health and I am now the Chief Investigator of the Sunproofed study, a 2-year scoping study of sun safety policies in primary schools in Wales. I am an active volunteer with Skin Care Cymru, a charity giving a voice to those with skin conditions in Wales and I am a Trustee PC Project Europe, another skin charity close to my heart.
