Biography
I am a researcher with extensive clinical background in the provision of psychosocial support to young people with cancer and their families. My research is focused on identifying psychosocial risks and facilitators for people with cancer (including young people) and their families, as well as developing co-designed interventions (including remote and online) to assist these populations to improve psychosocial outcomes. I have expertise in real co-design (real partnership at all stages of research and development) with stakeholders (e.g., cancer organisations, health services, clinicians) and consumers that lead to immediate translation and sustainability.Personal details
