Beschreibung des Fachgebiets, der Interessenschwerpunkte und der Beratungsthemen:

I am a medical anthropologist specialising in qualitative research methods, particularly conversation analysis. I am interested in using qualitative methods to explore how communication in clinical settings supports changes to health behaviours.
I currently hold a Themed Fellowship, from the THIS Institute, and lead a series of externally funded projects to explore communication about weight loss in primary care.

My research has contributed to national guidelines, and I have advised government and policy makers. I am a member of the NICE Adoption and Impact Reference Panel, and an honorary member of the University of Oxford’s Faculty of Linguistics. In 2022 I was the Society for Academic Primary Care (SAPC) Principal Investigator of the Year.

I currently lead a 3-year British Heart Foundation funded project developing evidence and training in communication about weight loss in primary care; and a 2 year NHIR PrP project to understand communication between people living with obesity and healthy weight coaches, and hold a personal THIS institute EDI-themed fellowship where I am examining how to improve prevention discussions between primary care staff and people with multiple long term conditions.
