Profile

I am a Professor of Alcohol Policy and Director of the . SARG is a multidisciplinary team of around 25 researchers and doctoral students who do public health, health economic and health psychology research on alcohol and tobacco use, as well as other addictive behaviours. As Director, I lead a wide range of research projects, and particularly focus on epidemiological and policy research related to alcohol and public health.

I am also the Lead Director of the Wellcome Doctoral Training Centre in Public Health Economics and Decisions Science (PHEDS). The PHEDS programme awards seven fully-funded PhD studentships each year to students who conduct high-quality analyses of the effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of complex multi-component public health interventions and policies to reduce non-communicable and chronic disease.

My background is in social policy and applied social science. I completed by Bachelors, Masters and PhD at the University of York. My doctoral thesis explored inequalities, risks and opportunities associated with young people's use of the internet in the mid-2000s, with a particular focus on online communication. During and after my PhD, I also undertook research on the determinants of child poverty and development. I joined ScHARR in 2010 as a Research Fellow within SARG and I took over as Director of the group in 2020.

PhD in Social Policy, University of York

Research interests

My research focuses on patterns, trends and inequalities in alcohol consumption and alcohol-related harm, as well as using evaluation methods and mathematical modelling to analyse and appraise alcohol policies. I also contribute to qualitative research studies in related areas.

My recent studies focus on the sharp decline in youth drink across high-income countries, event-level analysis of drinking practices and contexts, and the evaluation of major alcohol policies including minimum unit pricing in Scotland and the UK low risk drinking guidelines. Much of my past work focuses on the development of the ߲ݴý Alcohol Policy Model and its use to inform alcohol policy debate in the UK and internationally, particularly around alcohol taxation and minimum unit pricing. I am also interested in analyses of the clustering of health-related behaviours within individuals, analyses of alcohol-related health risks, critical perspective on alcohol and public health, and processes of alcohol policy-making.
