Specialising in the social, urban and health policy fields, I have particular interests in public services reform and frameworks of welfare governance, with particular interest in discourses and processes of:
- localism and sub-national governance
- community empowerment and civic participation
- decentralisation and the re-scaling of the state
- system change, commissioning and performance management
- marginalisation, inequality and urban citizenship
- neoliberalised cities and the reproduction of urban space
I gained my PhD from the University of Leeds in 2006. Since then I have published widely in the areas of community empowerment, NHS reform and urban governance. I joined LSHTM as a research fellow in 2008 to work on a range of studies examining the organisation and delivery of health services.

Research
I am currently working on a study of clinical commissioning groups and the restructuring of primary care in England. This is through my attachment to the DH-funded Policy Research Unit in Commissioning and the Healthcare System (Prucomm.ac.uk). Beyond my research into current health reforms, I have ongoing research interests in community governance, experiences of poverty and disadvantage, urban sociology, and normative political theory, including market reforms of the welfare state and the intellectual development of the UK Labour Party.
