Profile

I am a Palliative Medicine physician working at St Luke’s Hospice in º¬Ð߲ݴ«Ã½, having 6 years of consultant experience.  During specialist training, I completed a PhD in Health Sciences at Hull and York Medical School, which was awarded in 2012.

I moved to º¬Ð߲ݴ«Ã½ in 2017 as a Senior Clinical Lecturer, to develop my own research interests and lead St Luke’s research strategy.  I divide my work between St Luke’s Hospice and the University of º¬Ð߲ݴ«Ã½, with additional support to º¬Ð߲ݴ«Ã½ Teaching Hospitals when needed.

Research interests

My research interests include prognostication and clinical decision-making, particularly with respect to end of life care.  In addition to developing my own ambitions, I have worked with St Luke’s on their existing research portfolio, including EnComPaSS and project ECHO. 

I have collaborated with researchers nationally to support St Luke’s involvement with the £1.3m Yorkshire Cancer Research funded RESOLVE study, and the NIHR portfolio StOIC study, exploring management of opioid-induced constipation in cancer patients.

In collaboration with colleagues at ScHARR, I am undertaking research into Avoiding Emergency Admissions in Palliative Patients, funded by the º¬Ð߲ݴ«Ã½ Health Care Challenges Collaboration.
