Overview
I am a Senior Research nurse working at the Centre for Trials Research. I have extensive expereince in the design, set-up and implementation of both device and CTIMP trials. I am currently involed in trials including anti-viral treatments and co-designed personalised self-managment of chronic health conditions. I have an interest in Value Based Healthcare and the value of patient reported outcomes (PROMS). I have previously worked within the speciality of Wound Healing with an interest in diagnosis, host response and treatment of infection.
