Overview
I am a Research Associate in the cancer screening, prevention and early diagnosis theme in the Division of Population at Cardiff Univeristy School of Medicine. As a Medical Anthropologist I am interested in why and how people do and do not engage with cancer screening and prevention behaviours that impact time to diagnosis, especially with hard-to-engage or high risk groups. I have a particular interest in process evaluations of trials of complex behaviour change interventions exploring the generalisability of findings and understanding the role of context in intervention effectiveness. I am also interested in increasing true public representation in public and patient involvement exercises and lay representatives on trial development and management groups.
