Biography

I joined the School of Health and Related Research in August 2005 as an Information Office for Systematic Reviews and Knowledge Transfer projects.

Research Interests

My key research interests are around systematic literature searching; good practice in identifying sources of research funding and knoweldge transfer.

Teaching Interests

My main teaching interest is information skills training and the most effective way of delivering this. I have also worked on an online CPD programme for library and information professionals (FOLIO ) since 2006.
