Researcher biography
I am a clinician-academic whose interactions with patients have shaped my research questions and fuelled my enthusiasm for the importance of clinical research. I trained as a genetic counsellor and my research now focuses on the integration of genomics into clinical care. My research program has had three primary themes: evaluating the psychosocial impact of genetic conditions and/or genetic testing; evaluating genetics education preferences for patients and healthcare providers; and using next-generation sequencing to increase diagnostic yield for rare disorders.
Current research projects include:
- Exploring whether genetic fatalism affects sun-related health behaviours in high-risk individuals following genetic testing.
- Exploring the referral journey to genetic services for individuals with rare diseases
- Assessing Human Research Ethics Committee (HREC) members' confidence in reviewing genomic research applications.
- Mainstreaming Genetic Testing for Melanoma into Dermatology Practice.
- Using Exome sequencing to identify new genes in families with inherited melanoma, negative for mutations in known genes.
