Research Themes
I undertook a PhD investigating differing means to increase exercise capacity for those living with COPD at University of Glasgow, examining nutritional adjuncts and inhaler impacts upon ventilation. I have maintained an interest in pulmonary rehabilitation. I now focus on inclusion : access to research participation and pulmonary rehabilitation for people living in communities at the intersection of deprivation and minority ethnicity. I am lead for the NIHR funded programme grant, UPTURN.
My clinical speciality is Respiratory Medicine and my research interests align to clinical practice, including the use of cardiopulmonary exercise testing to identify breathing pattern disorders.
Responsibilities
I am a clinical Director of Studies for clinical medicine at Girton (third to final year) and have the privilege of supporting students as they transition into medical practice.
