Ana Buller BSC MSc PhD

Research Fellow

I received my BSc in Social Psychology from PUCP in Peru, following which I completed the MSc in Social Research Methods at the LSE in London. Upon completion of the MSc I stayed in the UK working as a research associate for KCL in a project assessing access to maternity services in London. Currently I am a Research Fellow at the Gender Violence Centre in a study related with intimate partner violence.   My main interests lie in the role of social exclusion and social characteristics in the experience of violence and gender, maternal health and ethnicity, the use of interpreters within health services and the use of both quantitative and qualitative methodologies in health related research.

Research

My PhD research looked into the relationship between the construction of masculinities and interpersonal violence among young men in urban-deprived settings from an ethnographic approach. Other research interests include maternal health and ethnicity and use of interpreters within health services.

Currently I am looking into the prevalence of IPV among MSM in London.
