I am module organiser for the MSc module 'Applied Communicable Disease Control' and seminar leader for the module 'Issues in Public Health'.

I have given lectures and seminars at LSHTM, Imperial College London, University College London, the University of Hong Kong in Hong Kong, the Institute of Tropical Medicine and International Health in Germany, and the International Vaccine Institute in South Korea.

I am the main supervisor of a PhD student researching social and cognitive factors underlying vaccine uptake and refusal in pregnant women. This PhD research involves a range of studies focussing on the interaction between trust of pregnant women in health care professionals and official educational materials, and the active searching for additional information when making the decision to vaccinate during pregnancy.

I was an associate supervisor to a PhD student who recently successfully completed her PhD on factors influencing vaccination uptake among ethnic minorities during pregnancy in England. This PhD research involves a literature review of factors leading to poor uptake of vaccines in pregnant women, focusing on maternal acceptability, concerns and trust, and in-depth interviews with pregnant women and health care workers about reasons for non-vaccination during pregnancy.

I have supervised MSc summer projects and tutored students from MSc Control of Infectious Diseases.
