In my 12 months as a Topol Digital Fellow I will be working with colleagues and local patient on common outcome sets for data collection across MSK services.

My Topol fellowship problem / project:

I will work with colleagues to develop a common outcome set for MSK patients across the local MSK services. I’m also planning to engage patients from the local community in workshops to discuss the importance of data collection and understand patient’s experiences and opinions of having their data collected.

I’m a physiotherapist in a first contact role in primary care. I did a PhD at UCL in digital health from 2017-2020 where I developed and evaluated a self management digital intervention to support patients with knee rehabilitation. I conducted research at Yale university to evaluate patients and clinicians experiences of using remote therapy tools for rehabilitation. I am now the Digital Clinical Lead for City & Hackney.
