Research summary
My research focuses on understanding the mechanisms linking development in utero to health and disease across the lifespan. My work spans process to population eg experimental medicine studies in pregnant women and their children, detailed mechanistic studies using placental tissue, randomised controlled trials testing interventions in pregnancy to improve outcomes and epidemiological data-linkage studies using ‘big data’ in Scotland.
