My research interests lie in the field of developing and evaluating complex behaviour change interventions for a variety of health conditions. I have experience of applying the Person Based Approach to intervention planning and optimisation and am especially interested in interventions for older adults and those addressing physical activity-related behaviours.
I am also interested in patient adherence to self-managed treatments, and the use and perceptions of online health information. My PhD focused on patient adherence to self-managed physical therapies and factors which facilitate this therapy or may act as barriers.
