Biography
I have a BSc (Hons) degree in Psychology from Sheffield Hallam University and a PhD in Psychology at the University of Sheffield. My PhD was a mixed methods study examining the potential link and associated vulnerability factors between postnatal distress and premenstrual symptoms.
From 2004 until 2008 I was an NHS Research Lead then a Research and Evaluation Manager in the Directorate of Public Health (NHS Sheffield).
From 2008 I have been working on the Self Management supported by Assistive, Rehabilitation and Telecare Technologies (SMART2) project, which is developing a presonalised self management system for patients with long term health conditions.
Research interests
Use of assistive technology to support the self management of long term conditions
Rehabilitation and quality of life of older people
