I am a Research Delivery Project Manager at MS & HERG (Medical Sociology and Health Experiences Research Group) project managing research projects including those intended for publication on Healthtalk.org website. I am the Information Governance Lead for MS & HERG and sit on the Information Governance Committee.

My role includes planning delivery schedules and resources, data management and project archives (managing the Healthtalk archive of over 3000 interviews), Information Governance compliance, staff inductions, checking delivered research data, filming and editing video, coding and copy editing material for publication. I also support MS & HERG research staff, providing training on systems and procedures, Healthtalk projects and video/ audio interviewing techniques. I am one of the tutors on the QRM HERG courses and the QRM Masters courses and I also lecture on video interview techniques. 

As part of the management group for MS & HERG I advise on and develop new policies and procedures for the group. I am also responsible for quality assurance procedures within the research group and the review of published research material on Healthtalk.
