Research interests
I am a Registrar and clinical academic in Obstetrics and Gynaeclogy, with a special interest in Urogynaecology. My primary area of interest is in Bladder Pain Syndrome and identifying novel therapeutic targets for its management. To date the majority of my research has been in genomics and the identification of genes involved in the Bladder Pain Syndrome disease process. I have now moved from this basic science stream to the clinical setting and am exploring the psychological and central mechanisms involved in the disease process.
