My current research focuses on interventions to reduce antibiotic use in primary care; for example, ‘Improving the uptake and sustainability of effective interventions to promote prudent antibiotic use in primary care’ (STEP-UP) study, exploring the implementation of antimicrobial stewardship interventions (ENACT study), and looking at the role of locum GPs in antimicrobial stewardship.
My research interests include behaviour change, design and process evaluation of complex health interventions, health promotion, group dynamics and interpersonal change processes, and communication in health contexts.
