Research

Has focussed on causes of infertility, reproductive failure and fertility treatments themselves. My PhD was an ethnographic study of infertile couples as they sought medical assistance in biological parenthood, often in IVF clinics. I have a clinical research background but am now more aligned with qualitative methodologies for investigating patient experiences. My current research interests include transitions to parenthood after
IVF, fertility and early pregnancy, and maternity care more widely, for example early postnatal care and parenthood.
