Biographical details

I am co-director of the Masters of Global Health programme and run a social science programme of research focused on supporting community engagement in infectious disease prevention, treatment and care.

Research interests

My current research focuses on adolescent global health. I run a qualitative longitudinal research programme exploring the experiences of young people growing with HIV and/ or exposed to high HIV risk. The programme includes a number of qualitative studies being run in Uganda, Zimbabwe and South Africa- as well as the United Kingdom and the United States of America.Many of these qualitative research studies are embedded within large international clinical trials and we are developing innovative methods for conducting research with vulnerable families. As such, although my primary expertise is in qualitative methodologies, I tend to work in a large multidisciplinary team and collaborate with clinicians, epidemiologists, ethicists and statisticians to address research questions through multiple methods.My main aim is to develop theoretically informed qualitative evidence, which can have an applied impact on improving adolescent health.

Current projects

The development of aYouth Trials Boardmodel, which aims to develop a simple low-cost model of meaningful engagement and participationof adolescent patient representatives in paediatric clinical trials and research studies. This is being developed and piloted with teams of young people and clinical researchers in UK, Uganda, Zimbabwe and South Africa.

I am the social science lead on the 'Zvandirai trial', which is alarge evaluation of a community peer support programme in Zimbabwe, employing a cluster randomised trial design. This is an exciting and innovative study aiming to assess whether peer support can have a significant affect on individuals' viral load. Our team are reponsible for an extensive qualitative study and the process evaluation components of this trial. This trial is a collaboration between CeSHAAR, AfricAid, LSHTM and USyd.

'ODYSSEY- social science'is a large qualitative study within a clinical trial based in Uganda and Zimbabwe on the experiences of young people living with HIV who are moved onto second line Anti-retroviral Therapy and is aimed at developing more appropriate and effective adherence support for those on second line. This study is being conducted in collaboration with the Clincial TRials Unit (CTU) at University College London (UCL).

I am in the process of completing the following studies.

BREATHER Plus- Examining the acceptability of the Short Cycle Therapy(five days on anti-retroviral treatment and two days off), which is a behavioural and clinical intervention, to improve adherence amongst young people living with HIV (10-24 years old). This is a longitudinal study (starting in 2011) using mixed qualitative methods with approximately 50 participants (repeat in-depth interviews, focus groups and audio diaries) with a cohort of clinical trial participants and their carers in Uganda, UK and the USA. This has been run in collaboration with the CTU at UCL.

Growing up alongside HIV, is also a longitudinal study exploring the experiences of young people and their carers (a sample of 60 12-24 years olds and 30 carers) in three settings of high HIV prevalence in Uganda. This study examines how risks and harm reduction strategies are influenced by poverty, gender, HIV status and substance use.
