Biography

Background

Following my clinical experience (ICU neurology; Clinical Psychology – older adults) and research experience (psychological and medical health, post prostate cancer treatment patients; Cardiff University), I completed a doctoral research at the University of Edinburgh, Centre for Population Health Science, College of Medicine and Veterinary Medicine. I conducted an epidemiological study, specifically a prospective investigation of the complex role of markers of systemic inflammation, cardiovascular risk factors, psychological and genetic variants in aetiology and trajectory of age-related brain impairment and decline. I am primarily interested in the interplay between medical and psychological health.

I currently work as an Academic Tutor (University of Edinburgh, MSc in Clinical Trials) and as an Associate Lecturer (The Open University; Psychology, Statistics).

I am also involved in a PRO relevant projects and consultancy work within a pharmaceutical industry. My key area of interest is a health outcome research.
