Emily began her career with a BSc (Hons) in Biomedical Sciences from 2018 - 2021, publishing her dissertation on the role of CDK4 in the pathogenesis of pancreatic cancer. She then went on to study a Global Master of Public Health at Imperial College, where, alongside special interests in infectious disease modelling and health protection, she conducted a research project on the barriers to physical activity among young women and girls. Alongside her master's studies, Emily volunteered with Cherwell District Council and Oxfordshire County Council, getting involved in a range of health promotion, community engagement, and health inequalities projects. During this time, she also worked as a health advisor at NHS 111, starting off her NHS career.
After completing her master's degree, Emily was accepted onto the NHS Graduate Management Training Scheme in Health Informatics, based in the Southeast in Hampshire. This course spanned two years and consisted of three placements across Hampshire Hospital Foundation Trust's Data Quality Team, Torbay Council's Public Health Team, and Hampshire and Isle of Wight Integrated Care Board's Population Health Analytics Service. During the graduate scheme, she also completed two further postgraduate qualifications in Healthcare Leadership (Elizabeth Garratt Anderson Award from the University of Birmingham) and Health Informatics (PDip from University College London and the University of Manchester).
Emily now joins the Industry and Innovation Team as a Programme Assistant - NAS.
