Rebekah Burrow
BSc MSc
NIHR Pre-doctoral Fellow
I am an NIHR Pre-doctoral Fellow within the Medical Sociology & Health Experiences Research Group. My interests are clinical trial design, maternal health, equity in research, data, evidence quality, and infectious diseases.
My current focuses are the inclusion of under-served groups in clinical trials, particularly pregnant people, and support for breastfeeding. My work is guided by Patient and Public Involvement, including my PPI Advisory Group.
I have a BSc in Medical Genetics and an MSc in Evidence-Based Health Care. As part of my fellowship I am studying for a PGCert in Qualitative Health Research Methods as well as training in clinical trials and systematic review methods.
I have worked in industry and in academia; at the University of Oxford, the MRC Clinical Trials Unit at UCL, St. George's, University of London, and the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine.
I have undertaken, managed, and supported research in maternal health, inclusive research, cancer, primary care, COVID-19, malaria, Ebola, multi-drug resistant tuberculosis, and inflammatory respiratory diseases, using a wide range of methods.
