Background

Research Experience

My background is in clinical trials and clinical research, and I have worked across this area in academia, the NHS, and the private sector in pharmaceutical/biopharmaceutical companies and contract research organisations. I am currently the Data Manager for the Mobilise-D consortium. Previous roles at Â鶹´«Ã½ include managing clinical trials for the Stroke Research Group and research associate with Helen Phillips and Judith Goodship's groups working on studies of the genetics of congenital heart disease and heart development in the Institute of Genetic Medicine. Other previous experience includes recruiting heart and kidney transplant patients for the Institute of Transplantation Biobank, and knee replacement patients in the Freeman Hospital, and as technical administrator managing SOPs and regulatory documentation for a clinical trials pathology laboratory at a CRO.
