Biography

I joined the University of Manchester in 2004 after working in industry. I then completed a two-year project looking at patient priorities for aspects of prmary care. After this I was awarded an MRC stipend in order to complete my Masters research. Subsequently I was employed on a HS&DR funded project looking at the impact of new incentives across primary care. Along side this I conducted (and completed in April 2011) my PhD entitled "Contractual Change and UK General Practitioners: Still a Case of Street-Level Bureaucrats?" for which I was fortunate to be awarded a highly commended award in the 2012 Emerald/EFMD outstanding doctoral research awards.

My post-doctoral work has focussed upon the phenomenon of multi-morbidity (MM) and how patients experience and manage their multiple conditions.  Alongside this I am the PI on a project looking at medicine-taking in MM patients.  I am now also the Research Fellow for the general practice theme of the National Institute for Health Resarch (NIHR) Greater Manchester Primary Care Patient Safety Translational Research Centre and this will form the focus of my work for the forseeable future.
