Senior Research Fellow, Institute of Education, UCL
I am a Senior Research Associate at the UCL Centre for Longitudinal Studies.
My educational background is in Sociology with an undergraduate degree from York and a master’s degree from Oxford, and a doctorate degree in Social Intervention also from Oxford.
My work is focused on cohort studies that follow large group of individuals through life. I have worked extensively with the Millennium Cohort Study, which involves around 19,000 participants born in the UK around the millennium. I am particularly interested in children’s and adolescent’s social, behavioural and health outcomes and the underlying factors causing these, with the aim of informing policy.
