Jane’s research focuses primarily on the development and evaluation of evidence-based behaviour change and other complex interventions, as part of Professor Charles Abraham’s programme of work. Previously, her research has mainly focused on psychosocial aspects of chronic disease management (e.g. asthma, arthritis, adherence to medication and other aspects of self-management, depression in chronic illness) but has recently shifted more towards chronic disease prevention (e.g. weight management, diabetes prevention). All Jane's research has involved working with multi-disciplinary teams of academics, clinicians, other professionals and public and patient representatives across primary and secondary care, and increasingly the public health sector. She has led and supported randomised controlled trials, economic evaluations and systematic reviews of complex interventions, development and testing of questionnaires and other outcome measures, and related quantitative and mixed methods research investigating behavioural and other psychosocial risk factors for, and impacts of, chronic disease.
