• MSc: Master of Public Health (MPH)
  Manchester University, 2008
• PhD: Risk and Rationalisation in Paradise: Cognisant Exposure to Sexually Transmitted Infections amongst Heterosexual Male Sex Tourists to Thailand
  Lancaster University,

I currently lead the Professional Doctorate in Public Health, as well as teach across a number of undergraduate and postgraduate modules.

I supervise several postgraduate students with research interests in a broad range of global health topics.

I have research interests in a variety of global health topics, particularly the role of social and cultural settings on health behaviours where voluntary risk-taking plays a part in negative health outcome. Currently, this involves exploring socio-cultural drivers of HIV transmission where knowledge and risk behaviours are at odds.

I am willing to supervise a PhD
