Biography

I have over 30 years’ experience of health and public health research. Prior to my current post at the university (which I started in February 2024), I spent 17 years as Public Health Programme Manager at the Glasgow Centre for Population Health (GCPH) (2006-2024).

Pre-GCPH posts include the Public Health Institute of Scotland (PHIS) and NHS Health Scotland (2001-2006), ISD Scotland (then the statistical arm of the NHS in Scotland) (1994-2001), as well as undertaking various research projects within NHS Greater Glasgow (1999-2000), NHS Argyll & Clyde (1996-98) and NHS Grampian (1993-1994).

Research interests

Health inequalities and their determinants are the key focus of all areas of my research. Recent/ongoing endeavours include: understanding the impacts of UK Government austerity policies on health inequalities in the UK; the causes of excess’ mortality in Scotland and Glasgow; adverse early years environments; ethnicity and health inequalities in Scotland/UK; health inequalities across post-industrial European regions.
