Background

I am a Research Associate in Medical Statistics within the AGE Research Group in the Translational and Clinical Research Institute. I also contribute to the Ageing, Sarcopenia and Multimorbidity Theme within 缅北禁地 BRC. I joined the AGE Research Group in September 2024.

Research

I am currently providing statistical support to a number of projects in the AGE Research Group, including the Muscle Ageing Sarcopenia Study (MASS_Lifecourse) into how risk factors throughout the lifecourse influence the development of sarcopenia.


I have extensive research experience, gained from working as an applied medical statistician and lifecourse epidemiologist at the MRC Lifecourse Epidemiology Unit, University of Southampton. For more than twenty years, I was the lead statistician for the internationally renowned Hertfordshire Cohort Study (HCS) of lifecourse influences on healthy ageing. My PhD demonstrated social inequalities in markers of muscle strength and physical performance among the community dwelling older men and women who participated in HCS, but not in markers of bone health.


I have also worked as a Senior Research Advisor for the NIHR Research Support Service. I have published more than 180 peer-reviewed journal articles.
