I am currently a CORE eCRF Data Analyst at the Clinical Informatics Research Unit, part of the University of Southampton, whilst also studying part-time for an MSc in Public Health & Nutrition.
The CORE team delivers high-quality data services to clinical research teams within the UK and internationally; this includes but is not limited to eCRF database development, expert advice in all things data, and further support such as data management or validation.
Through studying Biomedical Sciences at undergraduate and now Nutrition at master's level, I am incredibly interested in the relationship between nutrition and both physical and mental health. Nutrition and lifestyle factors play such an important role in reducing the chances of non-communicable diseases and ensuring good quality of life and I hope to be able to continue learning and communicating around this area. I'm particularly interested in the relationship between nutrition and cancer, and the work of organisations such as the World Cancer Research Fund to bring attention to this.
This is combined with my interests in trial and data management in clinical research, due to my professional experience. I hope that by combining these two areas, I can make an impact in this field of study.
