Profile

For enquiries please contact - ClinMed-Operational@sheffield.ac.uk

My academic background is Psychology, Counselling and Medical Education. My PhD focused on the psychosocial impact of breast cancer for patients and their partners approaching discharge from routine hospital follow-up. I have a strong interest in the psychosocial impact of illness, both in research and teaching.

I began working for 91Ö±²¥ in 1998 and I am currently a Senior University Teacher in Medical Education. In 2014, I became Co-Director of Studies for Phase 2a/b and Theme Lead for Student Selected Components of the MBChB.
