I have been an honorary Professor of Geriatric Medicine in the MRC Lifelong Health & Ageing unit at UCL since June 2021, having previously been Professor of Geriatric Medicine at the University of Leicester. With colleagues, I have been awarded funding exceeding £13 million and have published over 150 peer-reviewed papers. My ambition is to improve outcomes for older people living with frailty by embedding evidence based medicine into clinical practice. My service developments and research assess different models of care, testing feasibility as well as clinical and cost-effectiveness. My educational activities are local, national (BGS, RCP) and international (EUGMS, EAMA). I lead the Acute Frailty Network in England (2015-2021), the Specialised Clinical Frailty Network from 2018 and the System Wide Frailty Network from 2021.
