Research
A sociologist by trade, I currently work in the Bioethics Centre exploring societal and stakeholder attitudes towards novel antimicrobial development. My research is focused on the use of qualitative methodologies to inform policy and practice.
I have also written on a variety of health-related topics, including the prevention of sexual abuse and patient attitudes towards drug tapering.
