Biography
I am the Senior Statistician within HSRU having joined the Unit in November 2017, managing the Unit statisticians and all statistics commitments. I graduated (BSc Hons in Applied Statistics) from Hallam University, Sheffield in 1984, then went on to complete a PhD ("Analysis of Near Infra Spectra: For Compound Feeds") as a split Statistical/Biometrics discipline from the University of Aberdeen in 1991. Between 1984 -2017 I lectured statistics to mathematical/non-mathematical students at undergraduate/postgraduate levels in Preston and then back in Aberdeen. Since 2008 I have been a Senior Lecturer in medical statistics initially with the Medical Statistics Team, University of Aberdeen before joining the Unit. I have been a Royal Statistical Society (RSS) fellow since 1984 and been actively involved over the years where-ever I have been. Currently I am the chair of the local Highlands RSS group. I have had a particular interest in obesity prevention projects especially those directed towards young adults, although more recently my interests have move to be more trial methodologically based. I have a current and historical interest in using routinely collected data with an epidemiological perspective, but hope to redirect this to explore ways of embedding BIG data into new trial study designs.

Research Overview
Epidemiological and statistical aspects of longitudinal data. Specifically related to obesity prevention/treatment and associated lifestyle factors including nutrition, physical exercise, behaviour and attitude.
Current Research
Obesity prevention particularly for the 16-25 year olds as a hard to reach group with many of the known weight gain trigger points experienced during a lifecourse. We are currently in the process of developing suitable healthy lifestyle intervention programs for specific communities starting with participatory action research approaches.
The effect of fetal growth trajectories on later health outcomes is of particular interest and being investgated in partnership with computer science methodologies
