I am research active and have supervised over 50 doctoral level research projects to successful completion, mostly as principal supervisor. I have examined over 80 doctoral level dissertations, including at a number of Russell Group Universities. I am keen to be involved in research grant bids and to carry out research in the field of mental health.
