Research summary

My research focuses on people who have suffered a stroke due to bleeding in the brain (intracerebral haemorrhage, or ICH).

Past research interests

British Heart Foundation clinical research training fellowship January 2018 - January 2021: is blood pressure variability associated with outcomes after stroke due to intracerebral haemorrhage? Blood pressure in acute stroke collaboration (BASC): meta-analysis of individual participant data from randomised controlled trials testing effects of interventions to lower blood pressure after acute intracerebral haemorrhage.

Knowledge exchange

Current UK and US guidelines for the management of blood pressure after acute intracerebral haemorrhage include recommendations based on the findings of meta-analyses I led during my PhD fellowship.
