Profile
I am an intellectual and cultural historian of health concepts, currently focussing on psychological health and the child in twentieth-century Britain. My post-doctoral research is part of the Wellcome Trust-funded Living with Feeling project at the Queen Mary Centre for the History of the Emotions. Prior to joining Queen Mary, I completed my undergraduate studies in Physics and HPS at the University of Cambridge. I subsequently spent ten years producing and directing factual documentaries for the BBC before carrying out an MA and PhD in the History of Medicine at UCL.
