Biography

My clinics in rheumatology are general clinics and I assess and manage a wide range of common rheumatological conditions. I have a special interest in the management of people with inflammatory arthritis such as rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis and adults with juvenile-onset arthritis.

In addition to my clinical work I am also a researcher at the University of Manchester. My main research interests are understanding the short and long-term outcomes in adult and childhood-onset inflammatory arthritis, including a greater understanding of the role treatments play in these outcomes. I have researched and published extensively on the safety of biologic and JAKi therapies for RA and JIA and I lead the national registry of biologic drugs for these 2 conditions (please see www.bsrbr.org for more info).
