Faculty Member, Institute of Health & Society
Staff Scientist
About
My research interests focus on detailed empirical studies of
1) Medical practice and research.
2) Social science practice and research
I’m interested in identifying, describing and understanding the everyday, taken-for-granted, aspects of medical and social science work. A focus on what people actually do - as opposed to just what they tell that they do - can offer unique, practical and tailored solutions.
I am also a member of NERDS (North East Research Design Services) where I offer support and advice on the application of qualitative research methods to health and social care research.
