Research Interests

My research programme aims at developing and testing a) interventions to change behaviours relevant to health and health care, b) theory of behaviour change and c) research methods for behavioural research.  I am passionate about contributing to the development of an evidence-based science of behaviour change. My research covers a range of behaviours of patients, members of the public and health care professionals and a range of methodologies including randomised controlled trials, systematic reviews, experiments, predictive studies and n-of-1 studies. Much of my empirical work is conducted in interdisciplinary collaboration and I have a particular focus on capacity development and training.

I am currently fully funded as a member of staff in Fuse, UK Clinical Research Collaboration Centre for Translational Research in Public Health, funded by the British Heart Foundation, Cancer Research UK, Economic and Social Research Council, Medical Research Council, the National Institute for Health Research.

My research is funded by the  Medical Research Council, the National Institute for Health Research, the Scottish Government and Diabetes UK.
