After undergraduate Dentistry at Sheffield I did a PhD in Physiology (Bristol) followed by 5 years as a postdoc in the USA (Baltimore, Phoenix). On my return to the UK I was a Research Fellow in Glasgow for 3 years before becoming a lecturer in Sheffield in 2004. In 2013 I was appointed Senior Clinical Lecturer.

Research Interest

Since 2004 I have run a basic science laboratory dedicated to researching the mechanisms of chronic pain. More recently I have moved into translational studies in pain, in collaboration with colleagues in the Medical School and Weston Park Hospital locally as well as St Gemma’s Hospice, Leeds. My clinical interests are in oncology imaging and interventional procedures in the head and neck.
