Research Overview

My research interests reflect my clinical background in palliative and end of life care. I worked as a nurse for many years in specialist palliative care in a number of roles and settings prior to commencing my post within the University. I am currently working as a researcher for the NIHR Policy Research Unit in Palliative and End of Life Care. I am specifically working on a project looking at improving access to palliative and end of life care for minority ethnic groups. The study is being led by ¶¶ÒõAPPµ¼º½, in collaboration with the Universities of King's College, London, Hull York Medical School, Leeds University and Cambridge University. My PhD in Health Research focused on recruitment issues in palliative care trials.
