- Profile
-
I am a Palliative Medicine physician working at St Luke’s Hospice in 91Ö±²¥, having 6 years of consultant experience. During specialist training, I completed a PhD in Health Sciences at Hull and York Medical School, which was awarded in 2012.
I moved to 91Ö±²¥ in 2017 as a Senior Clinical Lecturer, to develop my own research interests and lead St Luke’s research strategy. I divide my work between St Luke’s Hospice and the University of 91Ö±²¥, with additional support to 91Ö±²¥ Teaching Hospitals when needed.
- Research interests
-
My research interests include prognostication and clinical decision-making, particularly with respect to end of life care. In addition to developing my own ambitions, I have worked with St Luke’s on their existing research portfolio, including EnComPaSS and project ECHO.
I have collaborated with researchers nationally to support St Luke’s involvement with the £1.3m Yorkshire Cancer Research funded RESOLVE study, and the NIHR portfolio StOIC study, exploring management of opioid-induced constipation in cancer patients.
In collaboration with colleagues at ScHARR, I am undertaking research into Avoiding Emergency Admissions in Palliative Patients, funded by the 91Ö±²¥ Health Care Challenges Collaboration.
