Teaching

• At Cardiff University, I am currently teaching on the MSc in Social Science Research Methods.  I previously taught on Research Methods 2 - Evidence for Health Policy (BSc Intercalated Population Medicine).
• I have supervised undergraduate and postgraduate dissertations and professional projects.
• At Cardiff University, I supervised to completion a Masters in Public Health (MPH) dissertation 'Health, Fitness and Social Media Influencers: A focus group study exploring the impact of Instagram on the health behaviours of young women'.
• I have previously taught at several universities (Warwick, Nottingham, West of England, South Wales/Glamorgan) to a diverse range of undergraduate, postgraduate and doctoral students (sociology, criminology, education, interdisciplinary, medical, other health professionals).
• I have been a repeated guest lecturer at a previous institution where I was a sociology lecturer.
• I have taught on the following substantive courses: Social Identity and Inequality; Bodies, Technology and Society; Genomics: Science and Society; Sociology of the Body; Values, Law and Ethics; Ethics of health screening; Pandemic planning; Sociology of Pornography; Key Issues in Sex Education.
• I have taught on the following research methods courses: Research Design, Practice and Ethics; Qualitative Research Methods in Health; Mixed Methods in Health Research; and, Mixed Methods Research Techniques.
• My teaching practice is informed by a PGCE in post-compulsory education and training.

I am a sociologist fascinated by the societal and ethical issues around health, science and technology.  I have expertise in qualitative methods and sociology/Science and Technology Studies theoretical approaches; as well as in, quantitative, mixed and systematic review methods.  I have experience of teaching substantive topics and research methods at several universities, to a diverse range of students, and of undergraduate and postgraduate dissertation/professional project supervision.  I am a committed academic citizen, including as an expert consultant for the World Health Organization.

During 2021 to 2022, I worked on the Active Building Centre project which looked at resident and housing professionals' experiences of Active Homes.

During 2020 to 2021, I worked on the study ‘Scientific Conferences after COVID’ which investigated the ways that scientists use conferences and meetings across the sciences, to identify those aspects of scientific work that are dependent on face-to-face meetings and those which could safely continue to be done remotely.  We also looked at the potential impacts on inequality.  The outcome is a unique contribution to the sociology of science and practical recommendations for the re-organisation of scientific meetings.

During 2021 I took part in the GW4 Crucible 2021 - Transitions to Net Zero in the time of COVID-19 – which fostered conversations and collaborations between future research leaders across a broad range of disciplines from the natural and political sciences to the arts, humanities, and creative sectors.  From this I became part of the GW4 Alliance on Climate and Health, which organised a networking workshop to identify priorities for funding applications, including GW4 IAA funding.

From 2020 to 2021, I worked as a qualitative researcher at the Centre for Trials Research at Cardiff University.  I worked on two studies: The Royal College of Nursing (RCN) Foundation funded study 'Inside the Black Box- An Ethnographic Examination of Nurses' Professional Judgement in Nursing Staffing Systems in England and Wales'; and the Medical Research Council (MRC) funded study 'Developing and Testing Participant Information Leaflets (PILs) that Inform and do not Cause Harm (PrinciPILs)'.

During 2019, I worked at Cardiff University on Prof. Adam Hedgecoe's Wellcome Trust funded qualitative study: ‘Professional decision making in next generation clinical genetics’.

From 2017 to 2019, I worked at the University of Warwick on Dr. Felicty Boardman's Wellcome Trust funded mixed methods study: ‘Pre-conception genetic screening for autosomal recessive conditions of uncertain or highly variable prognosis: social and ethical implications’.

From 2015 to 2017, I worked at the University of the West of England on Prof. Julie Kent's NIHR funded qualitative study: ‘Social, economic and ethical issues around cultured red blood cells, stem cells and immortalised cell lines’.

From 2013 to 2017, I worked at Cardiff University on several qualitative and mixed methods research projects including; divisional ownership of infection prevention and control; cancer survivorship; and, dentists' decision making around crown placement and replacement.  I also worked on literature reviews and grant applications.
