MSc, RN
Clinical Operational Lead
Clinical Operational Lead for the Oxford Clinical Research Facility
I am a registered comprehensive nurse, originally from New Zealand. I have worked in research in NDORMS since 2006, starting off as a Research Nurse and then Trial Manager for the Carr Group. When the Surgical Intervention Trials Unit (SITU) developed in 2013 I moved to become the Operational and Trial Development lead, covering the Orthopaedics and Plastics trial portfolios. At the start of 2020, I moved to work with Professor Duncan Richards to develop the clinical operations in the Oxford Clinical Research Facility.
