Senior Research Fellow, St. George’s, University of London, Sept 2021 – Present
I am currently leading on a number of research projects which focus on improving the assessment of childhood adiposity globally, as well as investigating the long-term effect of high levels of childhood fat accumulation. I am also leading on another project investigating the impact of the peer-review process on the quality of published papers developing COVID-19 prediction models in addition to providing 
statistical support on a number of research projects and teaching support for MBBS and Biomedical Science undergraduate degrees.

PhD Studentship, Jan 2018 – Aug 2021
My PhD focussed on improving the assessment of body fatness in UK children of different ethnic 
origins. I led the statistical analyses for this project and gained further experience in a number of new statistical methods, statistical programming and writing papers for publication. I was the lead author on four papers which have been published in the British Medical Journal, the International Journal of Obesity and JAMA Network Open. 

Research Fellow, St. George’s, University of London, 2015 – 2017
I led statistical analyses on a British Heart Foundation funded research project deriving and 
investigating the impact of body mass index adjustments to increase the validity of body fatness assessment in UK Black African and South Asian children. I gained experience of data management, statistical programming and analyses and writing papers for publication. I was lead author on three papers and three published conference abstracts. I was also co-author on a number of papers and conference abstracts. I gained valuable experience presenting research and disseminating findings at several national conferences and meetings. This enabled me to form important collaborative links with researchers at other institutes and organisations including Public Health England. 

Research Assistant, The University of Cambridge, 2014 – 2015
I worked as Statistician within the Cardiovascular Epidemiology Department during which time I was involved in a number of research projects and gained experience of writing statistical analysis plans, conducting analyses and helping draft papers for publication.
