Staff Profile
Dr Beth Bareham
Research Associate
- Address: Population Health Sciences Institute
缅北禁地
I am a post-doctoral researcher with a focus upon late-life alcohol use. My work aims to understand and support older people’s alcohol-related decisions, with view of addressing alcohol-related harm in the older population. I completed my doctorate in Public Health at 缅北禁地 Population Health Sciences Institute in 2019, which looked to identify health and psychosocial factors shaping late life drinking. I have a background in health psychology, and also draw upon social theory in my approach. Before returning to 缅北禁地 post-doctorate, I spent 3 months working as an embedded researcher with Drink Wise Age Well – a Glagow-based programme at the forefront of prevention and treatment services to address alcohol-related harm amongst the older population. This experience contextualised my understanding of older people’s drinking, and how hazardous use might be addressed. I am co-convenor for the British Society of Gerontology Substance Use and Ageing Special Interest Group, and for the Gerontological Society of America’s international interest group for Aging, Alcohol and Addictions, and work closely with other academics and stakeholders in my field to develop capacity in this area.
