My particular areas of research are in apnoeic ventilation, high flow nasal oxygenation, airway ultrasound, and airway training as well as enhanced recovery with regards to regional and orthopaedic anaesthesia. I am a lecturer in Medicine at St Hilda's College where I spend lots of my academic time and for the rest of it I teach within the Medical and Surgical Divisions in the Trust.
