ABOUT ME

I am currently a Research Fellow for the Wellcome Trust Senior Investigator Award 'The Cultural History of the NHS' in the Centre for the History of Medicine at the University of Warwick. I completed my PhD in 2015, which analysed the role and function of visual images in constructing knowledge about healthy eating and disease prevention in postwar Britain. I research public health and health education in Britain with a focus on the visual components of health campaigning, chronicity and the place of prevention. You can find out more about me on my staff page.
