Catherine's research interests lie in both Pharmacy Practice and Pharmacy Education.
In 2011, Catherine and Angela Alexander (Professor of Pharmacy Education) received funding from the University of Reading Annual Fund to set up a pharmacy student led health check service for other students. Catherine surveyed other university students about willingness to participate in lifestyle checks, likelihood of attending compared to other providers, which checks they would be interested in and their views on a peer-support service run by pharmacy students. Catherine set up the health check service in November 2011 and based on its success it continues to run as part of the year 4 PM4ES7 module. Catherine collected data from pharmacy students on the educational benefits of undertaking health checks on real patients. Additionally Catherine surveyed participants after their health check on their experience of the service and the likelihood they will make a healthy lifestyle change as a result of the service.
In 2014, Catherine and Terry Ng (Teacher Practitioner) received funding from the University of Reading Teaching and Learning Development Fund for the project "Enhancing student experience through real patient contact". The project aims explore the educational benefits of public and patient involvement in MPharm teaching.
Catherine supervises 4th year research project students undertaking community, primary care and hospital based service evaluations and audits.
