Research

My research focuses on improving management for patients with heart failure and other long term conditions; adherence to physical activity; self-management of heart failure and comorbid conditions; cardiovascular prevention; and nurse- or AHP-led services. Current work includes the Optimise-HFpEF study, a multi-site programme of work to improve the management of patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction.
