Research interests
I'm currently a systematic reviewer with the Bristol Evidence Synthesis for Screening (BESS) Group, where I contribute to evidence maps that inform the work of the UK National Screening Committee. I have a PhD in epidemiology and a background in evidence synthesis, public health research, and genomics. My work includes producing rapid reviews and evidence maps to support national policy, including for the UK Health Security Agency and the UK NSC. I'm also a Fellow of Advance HE and have been involved in teaching, supervision, and training in higher education. My research has been published in peer-reviewed journals and government reports, across both academic and applied settings.
