Rwy'n uwch ddarlithydd yng Nghanolfan Wolfson ar gyfer Iechyd Meddwl Pobl Ifanc ac rwy'n rhan o'r grŵp Seiciatreg Plant a'r Glasoed yn y Ganolfan Geneteg a Genomeg Niwroseiciatrig. Mae fy ymchwil yn ymchwilio i iechyd meddwl pobl ifanc gan ddefnyddio dull rhyngddisgyblaethol, gan integreiddio seicopatholeg ddatblygiadol, seiciatreg ac epidemioleg genetig. Mae gen i ddiddordeb arbennig mewn gwahaniaethau datblygiadol yn etioleg a chyflwyno problemau iechyd meddwl.
Yn 2023 dyfarnwyd Grant Ymchwil Ymchwilydd Newydd MRC i mi i ymchwilio i sut a pham mae ADHD yn arwain at iselder mewn pobl ifanc (2023-2027). Cynhelir yr ymchwil hon mewn cydweithrediad â phobl ifanc sydd â phrofiad byw trwy Grŵp Cynghori Ieuenctid Canolfan Wolfson a Sefydliad McPin.
Rwyf hefyd yn gyd-ymchwilydd ar brosiect Horizon Europe Youth-GEMs: Gene Environment interactions in Mental health trajectories of Youth (2022-2027).
