Biography

Paul joined the MRC/CSO Social and Public Health Sciences Unit (SPHSU) in September 2012 and is a Research Fellow within the School of Health of Wellbeing.  Paul is the lead researcher on the SPACES (Studying Physical Activity in Children's Environments across Scotland) study and is working with Professor Rich Mitchell and the Places and Health team to investigate the role of the built and natural environment and local neighbourhood on children’s health and physical activity levels and behaviours.

Paul’s primary research focus lies is the physical activity levels and behaviours of children and young people; he is specifically interested in the built, natural, and social environmental determinants of this health behaviour.

Alongside Dr Anne Martin, Paul co-leads a program of work evaluating the impact of attending nature nurseries on the health and wellbeing of young children, their parents, nursery staff, and their wider communities. 

Please check Google Scholar where full details of Paul’s publication history can be found.
