Jump to: Affiliations Teaching Research Publications

I am Pro Director for Research and Academic Development at LSHTM. As a member of the Executive Team my responsibilities include oversight of research, innovation and impact strategy, research culture, governance and integrity, partnerships, the Doctoral College, inter-disciplinary Centres and academic development (career development and promotions).

I have a 0.8FTE position at LSHTM and have retained a 0.2FTE position at the University of Bristol (my previous host institution) where I am continuing to pursue active research.

Teaching

I have experience of teaching undergraduate, Master's and short course programmes, mainly in the field of Molecular Epidemiology, but am currently not involved in taught course delivery at LSHTM.

Research

My research interests are in genetic and epigenetic epidemiology. My work has involved both methodological development and applied research, with the aim of seeking to understand the role of DNA methylation in common complex disease, and the use of this molecular feature in disease prediction, prognosis and patient stratification.
