I have research interests in the translation of research evidence into policy and practice across health, education and social care; inequalities in health (and what can be done about them) and the voice of the patient, service user and citizen. I write on the lay expertise of users of services (including child users); the synthesis of different kinds of research evidence, and implementation issues. My work has recently been with young people leaving the care system, in particular young people arriving as unaccompanied children, and young people with a learning disability.  Current research includes working with the longitudinal qualitative team at Born in Bradford and joining my colleague Lee Hudson's team looking at mental health admissions to paediatric wards (MAPS). 

A current preoccupation on the research/engagement borders is working with clinical, early career and sustainability colleagues as well as local residents on how they might prioritise action relating to the Great Ormond Street Hospital for Children' Clean Air Hospitals Framework and working with Bartlett ICH and Laws colleague on clean air issues more generally @UCL_CleanAir
