Trosolwyg
Rwy'n gydymaith ymchwil ansoddol yn y Ganolfan Ymchwil Treialon (CTR). Rwy'n gweithio'n bennaf ym meysydd cymdeithaseg feddygol, astudiaethau gwyddoniaeth a thechnoleg, a moeseg bio/feddygol. Rwy'n brofiadol yn y defnydd o ystod eang o ddulliau ymchwil ansoddol ac ethnograffig, ac mae gennyf ddiddordeb mewn gwaith gwyddoniaeth gweithredu a gwella. Roedd fy PhD (2015) yn astudiaeth empirig o ymddangosiad a chyfieithiad y dechnoleg profi cyn-geni newydd NIPD/NIPT (diagnosis/profi cynenedigol anfewnwthiol), y gwnes i recriwtio ystod eang o gleifion, clinigwyr a chyfranogwyr arbenigol ar ei gyfer. Gan dynnu ar y cyfrifon hyn, archwiliodd y traethawd ymchwil terfynol newid y ffin sefydledig rhwng arferion sgrinio cyn-geni a diagnosis cynenedigol, problem foesol, cymdeithasol a gwleidyddol NIPT/D, canoli profiadau a dadleuon terfynu/erthyliad, a chyfyngu a dadlediad dadl fiofoesegol. Ar hyn o bryd rwy'n brif ymchwilydd ar gyfer NEPTUNE, astudiaeth ddilynol o weithredu NIPT mewn sgrinio cyn-enedigol arferol yng Nghymru, ac yn gyd-gynullydd rhwydwaith ymchwil ansoddol y CTR.
Cyn ymgymryd â'r ymchwil hon, cyfrannais at ystod eang o brosiectau ymchwil ansoddol a biofoesegol yn Cesagen, y Ganolfan ar gyfer Agweddau Economaidd a Chymdeithasol Genomeg a ariennir gan ESRC. Treuliais amser hefyd yn gweithio i'r Uned Arbenigol ar gyfer Tystiolaeth Ymchwil (SURE), a chyfrannodd at nifer o brosiectau a gydlynir gan Ysgol Gwyddorau Cymdeithasol Prifysgol Caerdydd. O'r herwydd, cyfrannais at ystod eang o ddadleuon a thrafodaethau, gan gynnwys; moeseg dewis rhyw, cymhwyso technolegau biometrig newydd, safoni moeseg mewn biofancio ac iechyd y boblogaeth, gofal urddasol pobl hŷn, gofal pobl â dementia, a'r defnydd cymunedol o gyfryngau cymdeithasol ar-lein.

Current projects:
PUMA: Paediatric early warning system (PEWS): Utlisation and Mortaility Avoidance
A Prospective, mixed method, before and after study, set within four UK hospitals (two District General Hospitals and Two Specialist Children’s Hospitals): http://pumastudy.com/about-puma
Background: UK paediatric mortality is highest in Europe; A recent survey revealed 85% paediatric inpatient units in the UK were using a track and trigger tool but there was huge variability in the tool being used and most of these were unpublished and un-validated; There is an urgent national need to develop an evidence based PEWS for UK practice.
Study aims: to Identify through a systematic review of the literature the evidence for the core components of a paediatric track and trigger tool; Develop a track and trigger tool implementation package for prospective evaluation; Evaluate the ability of the track and trigger tool to identify serious illness and reduce clinical events by examining core outcomes; Identify the contextual factors that are consequential for tool effectiveness; Identify the key ingredients of successful implementation and normalisation.
Key areas of interest:
Medical sociology, Science and technology studies/STS, bioethics, biopolitics, the sociology of reproduction, prenatal testing, palliative care, genetics and genomics.
