My research interests are in implementation science and knowledge mobilsation, with the aim of increasing the impact of research evidence in policy and practice.  I have many years experience of running large scale mixed methods research studies, predominantly in primary care, including studies relating to frequent attenders in primary care, depression, cardiovascular risk and osteoporosis.  I am also a chartered psychologist specialising in health and behaviour change. I will be working alongside the teams at NIHR ARC West and NIHR HPRU in Behavioural Science and Evalutation to support implementation and knowledge mobilisation activities.
