Personal profile
Research interests
I am an academic nutritionist with research interests in maternal and child nutrition. My main project - the PEAR (Pregnancy, the Envionment And nutRition) Study - concerns dietary exposures to toxic metals in pregnancy, funded by an MRC Career Development Award (2020-2025). Additional projects that I lead include studies on preschool child eating behaviour (picky eating) and on the effect of early nutrition on health and development outcomes such as obesity. I am also part of ECLIPS (Elevated Childhood Lead Interagency Prevalence Study; UKRI, with Professor Jane Entwhistle), SHIELD (Studying Health Impacts of Early Life Diets; NIHR, with Professor Geraldine McNeill) and Toxic Metal Exposures and Ethnic and Social Health Inequalities (MRC, with Professor Seif Shaheen). Previous personal awards include a Daphne Jackson Fellowship (2012-2014) and a Wellcome Career Re-Entry Fellowship (2015-2019).
