About
I am an academic obstetrician with an interest in fetal medicine and complex pregnancies
My main clinical and research interests include preterm birth, multiple pregnancy and fetal growth restriction
I am the clinical lead for multiple pregnancy and fetal growth at Liverpool Women's Hospital
My formative research experiences were on placental function and this has been carried forwards into my work on fetal growth restriction including the randomised controlled trial of sildenafil for severe early-onset growth restriction: STRIDER UK
I'm an investigator on the Wellcome Trust funded birth cohort Children Growing Up in Liverpool and Civic Data Cooperative data linkage initiative
I am leading the PLANES study for small for gestational age babies and am a co-applicant on the TRUFFLE-2 and FERN studies
