I joined the school in 2010 and currently work for the ACT Consortium providing social science support for a range of studies investigating malaria drug delivery in Africa and Asia.
I have an undergraduate degree in Social Anthropology from Cambridge University (2005) and an MSc in Public Health from LSHTM (2010). My research background is primarily qualitative, applying social science to various areas of public health research, in both lower and higher income country settings. Previous research includes intervention evaluation, public health in medical education, medical research ethics and most recently, malaria treatment interventions. I have previously worked for an NGO in Ghana helping design and deliver behaviour change activities for health promotion campaigns.
Affiliation
Teaching
I am a tutor for the MSc Public Health (health promotion stream) and a seminar leader for Qualitative Methodologies module. I have also been a seminar leader for the Medical Anthropology in Public Health module.
Research
My academic interests include the social determinants of health, health inequalities, health promotion and behaviour change, research ethics, evaluation, and qualitative methodologies.
I am currently co-investigator on a study based in Tanzania, exploring perceptions of malaria and malaria treatment amongst HIV-positive people taking anti-retroviral medication. I am also exploring definitions of quality in qualitative research, and how to monitor and assure quality in qualitative studies, particularly in the field of global health.
