Kathryn Hubbard

MSc, BSc

Study Coordinator

I am a Study Coordinator working in the Health Behaviours team.

I support other researchers in the team, helping with the practical work that goes in to setting up and running clinical trials that test new treatments for obesity. These trials also look at how we can improve the care that is currently available to patients.

At the moment I mainly work on the three LightCOM trials: LightBAR, LightWAY and LightCARE. Each study will compare a weight-loss treatment programme with the best care that patients living with obesity can currently receive. We will test this treatment programme in different groups of people to see how worthwhile the treatment is and how much it could improve patients’ long-term health and quality of life.

I also manage the Health Behaviours team's Weight Management Panel. This is a Patient and Public Involvement (PPI) group of people with personal experience of overweight and trying to lose weight. The Panel helps the Health Behaviours team to design our research projects. If you would like to find out more about the Panel and how you could be involved, please email: hb_panel@phc.ox.ac.uk.
