Overview
I am a qualitative research fellow at Cardiff University’s Centre for Trials Research (CTR), specialising in ethnographic and qualitative methods, implementation science, and collaborative, interdisciplinary study design. My academic background spans medical sociology, science and technology studies, and bioethics, with a long-standing focus on women’s health, reproductive ethics, and the social dimensions of genomic medicine.
My PhD (2015) examined the emergence and early clinical translation of non invasive prenatal testing (NIPT). This work illuminated how NIPT reshapes the boundaries between screening and diagnosis and how its rapid development interacts with complex ethical, social, and political debates - particularly around selective reproduction and abortion. Following this, I led NEPTUNE, the first UK study to examine the integration of NIPT into routine prenatal screening at a national level, focusing on implementation challenges, service user experiences, and the implications of complex pregnancy care. I currently hold an HCRW Advancing Researcher award, through which I am building on the work of NEPTUNE, in collaboration with national policy and international academic partners. My wider research portfolio spans reproductive health, genomic testing, nursing and midwifery policy, and health services research. I have contributed qualitative leadership to multiple NIHR and HCRW funded studies, designed and delivered co production and implementation work packages, and helped translate social scientific insights into practical outputs such as clinical tools, training resources, and improvement interventions.
Alongside my research, I support the development of others through supervising MSc and PhD students, mentoring academic and NHS colleagues, and teaching on programmes in genetics/genomics, medical education, and research design. I also chair CTR’s Qualitative Research Network, fostering methodological development and interdisciplinary exchange across the Centre and with NHS and community partners. I am committed to advancing inclusive and community engaged research, particularly with populations under represented in women’s health and maternity studies. My work continues to focus on bringing the experiences and expertise of patients, families, clinicians, and under represented communities into the centre of research, policy, and practice.
