Research Interests
My research interests include the development of health behaviour change interventions, which can be applied to improve public health outcomes through illness and disease prevention. I am currently working on the CHOICE (Changing Habits tO Prevent ChIld CariEs) Trial, which aims to assess the effectiveness of the DR-BNI intervention in NHS primary dental care. Using motivational interviewing and BCTs, the intervention promotes positive oral health behaviours within families to prevent the reoccurence of dental caries in high-risk children.
