Biography
As well as my clinical academic work, I am a geriatrician with my clinical practice at Catihness General Hospital in Wick a small rural hospital in the far north of Scotland.
After training at the University of Birmingham, and post graduate training in North West England, I moved to Scotland to do a Clinical Research fellow post at the University of Edinburgh. My PhD focused on small vessel disease. Diffuse vascular disease that is very common in older people, and is responsible for vascular dementia, lacunar stroke, gait instablity as well as other co-morbidities.
I am still interested in stroke but in addition I am now also investigating the best way to deliever health care to frail elderly patients in remote and rural areas.
I am always keen to collaborate and welcome enquires from prospective collaborators and research students.
