I have a BSc in Nutrition from King's College London and an MSc from LSHTM.
Affiliation
Teaching
I am one of four Course Directors for the MSc in Public Health. I co-organise the Module Health Promotion: Approaches and Methods and seminar lead on the Module Sexual Health.
Research
My experience includes research into the determinants of sexual health, the development of interventions to improve and promote sexual health and the evaluation of public health interventions. I am currently working on the third National Survey of Sexual Attitudes and Lifestyles (Natsal), an evaluation of RNIB's Community Engagement Projects Programme and on my PhD, in which I am exploring seasonal variations in abortion.
