Our colleagues
Dr Parveen Ali
"I have received several awards for my work. My research has informed national policy discussions and international training initiatives to improve responses to domestic violence and gender inequality in healthcare."
Professor Kamal Birdi
"My research, teaching and practitioner passions focus on creativity in organisations. I have engaged with hundreds of organisations to help them develop innovative solutions to their complex challenges."
Dr Munya Dimairo
"I am proud of my international work developing practical resources for the appropriate use of adaptive trial designs, and I hope to contribute positively to the lives of patients and the community."

"One of my biggest achievements has been successfully coordinating and supporting PGR students across multiple disciplines, ensuring smooth admin processes and timely communication during a period of structural change within the Doctoral School."
Professor Munitta Muthana
"As a team, we have achieved a number of breakthroughs. For example, we devised a new way to deliver large quantities of cancer-killing viruses to tumours using a cell delivery approach. mM main research goal is to drive my team’s discoveries from bench to bedside."
Professor Amaka Offiah
"Sheffield is the perfect place for my research. It has a busy Emergency Department at the Children's Hospital and hosts the Mellanby Centre for Bone Research, looking after the largest cohort of children with osteogenesis imperfecta in Europe."
Professor Aki Tsuchiya
"I joined the University in 2000, and I am very proud of all the graduate students from different backgrounds whom I’ve supervised over the years. It is a great joy to see our graduates making their careers as health economists in the real world."
Professor Chee Tan
"I have led and shaped the School of Electrical and Electronic Engineering to establish Sheffield as a top 10 Electrical and Electronic Engineering department in various university ranking tables, a truly memorable and rewarding experience"
