Personal Statement
Senior Lecturer in Dental Biometrics and Academic lead for Clinical Sciences. BSc/BDS year 2 Co-Lead, Foundations of Practice Lead
My interests lie in the areas of 2 and 3D dental and facial morphology. I designed and developed the fixed and mobile digital imaging units used within a wide area of dental research. Previously, whilst at the University of Sheffield, I obtained my PhD involving the measurement of dental plaque and gingival inflamation using image analysis. My other research interests include the assessment of anti-plaque and whitening products (clinical trials) and phenotyping of dental abnormalities that cause anomalies of size, shape and colour.
