Deputy Dean Research Operations for the Faculty of Medicine and Health.

deputy Head of School for the School of Health Sciences in the Faculty of Medicine and Health. Through its Research, Education and direct Engagement, the School of Health Sciences' mission is to improve the health and wellbeing of our community.

As a Researcher, my mission is to improve the diagnosis and treatment of long-term complications in cancer survivors using a variety of approaches ranging from cellular models to human studies. My research program also focuses on the preventive and protective role of exercise in the context of paediatric chronic conditions.

Nutrient utilisation in children with inborn errors of metabolism.

Through the international program "Family farming, lifestyle and health in the Pacific (FALAH) supported by the European Union, I explore avenues to improve the health trajectory in paediatric populations using lifestyle interventions. 

Investigating the feasibility and effectiveness of a targeted exercise intervention for women following gynaecological cancer treatment - ACUMEN Clinical Trial.

 

 

My Research Supervision

PhD: Nutrient utilisation in children with inborn errors of metabolism: To investigate how novel or emerging nutrition supplements are processed in the body for children with fatty acid oxidation disorders or glycogen storage disease type V.

PhD: Discovery of serum biomarkers for the diagnosis of sport-related concussion in children.

PhD: The effect of the gut microbiome on adaptation to exercise.

PhD: Investigating the feasibility and effectiveness of a targeted exercise intervention for women following gynaecological cancer treatment - ACUMEN Clinical Trial.

My Teaching

I contribute teaching to a variety of courses in the School of Health Sciences and across the Faculty of Medicine and Health, with a particular focus on the role of exercise in the prevention and rehabilitation of chronic conditions.
