Biography
With over 10 years experience in research management, I began working for the Research Governance Team upon completion of my post graduate degree at the University of Bristol.
I initially joined the team to create, implement and roll out the online ethics tool across all faculties and support the each of the 6 Faculty Research Ethics Committees (FRECs). Since that time, the Research Ethics Committee (REC) infrastructure has grown to include 17 operational RECs undertaking the review of research involving human participants and we are currently rolling out a new Online Research Ethics Management System (OREMS) for use by all 17 RECs.
With the establishment of a new Research Ethics and Integrity team, I manage the internal research ethics review process for research involving human participants, and the expanding requirements of the Concordat to Support Research Integrity and aligned improvements to the University’s research ethics infrastructure and research culture.
