Profile

I qualified in medicine from the University of Edinburgh. Following paediatric and tropical medicine training, I then worked overseas running primary health care and tuberculosis control programmes in Afghanistan.

I am dual trained in general practice and public health in the UK. I have previously worked as a Public Health Consultant in Nottingham City, as a director of primary care and population health with the NHS, and as a Consultant in Communicable Disease Control with Public Health England and the UK Health Security Agency.

I joined the Section of Public Health in ScHARR in February 2008 and am a Professor of Public Health.

Currently, I am the Co-Editor-in-Chief for Public Health, and Public Health in Practice journals of the Royal Society for Public Health.

Teaching interests

I am keen on teaching and especially on global health issues, humanitarian aid, health service management and communicable disease control. I currently lecture on international health needs assessment, disaster planning and impact evaluation on the MPH course.

I also developed and teach on the following MPH modules: Communicable Disease Control, and Disaster and Emergency Management. In addition, I teach on the undergraduate medical programme, and on the Executive MBA programme at City College, Thessaloniki, Greece.

I have worked as a trainer on orientation courses for relief workers, and delivered training to healthcare workers abroad as well as to health professionals in the UK.

Professional activities: I also carry out a variety of external consultancy work such as training on patient safety and clinical audit, health needs assessments, health equity audits, programme evaluations and impact assessments. Most recently I conducted external evaluation consultancies for the World Health Organisation in 2015, and for the European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control (ECDC) in 2018/2019. I am a trained Executive Coach with Health Education England and an educational supervisor for public health specialty training scheme in Yorkshire and the Humber. I am Co-Editor in Chief for the journals Public Health, and Public Health in Practice, Royal Society of Public Health.
