Cicely Marston BA (Hons) MSc PhD

Senior Lecturer in Social Science

After my undergraduate degree in Human Sciences from Oxford, I studied MSc Medical Demography at LSHTM, then stayed to complete an interdisciplinary PhD and postdoc in young people's sexual behaviour and behaviour change, with fieldwork in Mexico City. I then moved to Imperial College, London where I continued my research and ran a Public Health MSc. I returned to LSHTM in 2005.
